It's long and there are slow periods, but I see people that I don't ordinarily see, eat and drink a good bit and stock up on my cheap T-shirt and coozie supplies. When the band comes in I'm outta there.
Same here, they had a ton of $5 LSU shirts last year. I got a couple of these.....2003 and 2007.......
This SHOULD be the the first year that I can actually make it. Seems like each year I have different issues/emergencies that cause me to miss work so I don't feel right taking one of my personal days to attend. This year has been pretty crisis-free (knock on wood), so I should be able to take that day off.
I really wish I lived in BR. Here is to hoping my GRE scores will be good enough to get a good ride for a masters/ph.d at LSU
