Any word on tailgating?

Traffic will start arriving for a day game before noon and most of the free lots are already filled by 3 hours before gametime.

If that traffic hits a regular day at LSU it will be a complete clustersomething. I can't believe they haven't closed LSU on Monday already. Why wait?

Makes no sense to me. The only thing I can think of is they may be afraid of some type of negative press, the "they think football is more important than class" kind of thing. Other than that, I have no idea. I'll just get ready for that clustersomething you were talking about.

When I was at LSU, going to class on Mondays was bad luck. Never did it.

Only took me seven years to graduate, too. :lsup:

I think the press already knows that.

Campus police will restrict parking until
mid-afternoon on Monday.

That is from an email from LSU to students. It is saying that school is closed Monday because of proably clean-up work for the hurricane...

Due to the effects of Hurricane Rita on the Southwestern parishes, we
are advised by state emergency officials to expect the imminent arrival of
special-needs evacuees to be transported to the Fieldhouse. Contingency
operations are under way to begin resumption of acute-care activity in the
PMAC. We also expect that storm-related damage to property could be
comparable to Hurricane Katrina. Consequently, LSU Facility Services
estimates that it will need approximately two days to remove fallen trees,
clean up debris, restore any power outages, and repair damage to structures
and roadways. National Weather Service forecasts predict that the most
storm-intense activity will end in the Baton Rouge area by Sunday morning,
enabling Facility Services to begin the clean-up and restoration of campus
to safe and operational status starting Sunday afternoon.

To facilitate this process and to provide expedited restoration of
the LSU campus, classes and operations will be cancelled Monday, September
26th. The class makeup date will be Thursday, October 6th. Essential
employees are reminded that they are required to report for work as usual
on Monday, September 26th, and should contact their immediate supervisors
for possible assignment this weekend. Facility Services has required that
the campus streets and parking lots remain clear on Sunday and Monday to
ease the clean-up process. Campus police will restrict parking until
mid-afternoon on Monday. Members of the LSU community who wish to assist
with this clean-up effort may volunteer by calling Facility Services at
578-6542.
