    If everyone has that same mindset then we will never get a solution, the stands will become even less crowded. I know many companies that have trouble sometimes getting their customers and/or employees to attend games because they don't want to have to leave their homes at 7 in the morning for a game that starts at 7 at night and then get home after midnight.

    And they also don't cherish the idea of sitting in 90° heat in afternoon games either. The reality is there are going to be several thousand no shows even when it is a big game.

    It is not something that is unique to LSU, it happens every where. I will be upset when the tickets are not selling, not when people are not showing up for games they paid for.

    But see, they already did that, and that's the reason it's gotten so damn much worse. They just couldn't leave well enough alone. When you have a university awkwardly crammed into a corner of the city, there is only going to be so much that can be done to alleviate traffic for big events. Yet they refused to accept that reality and tried to re-invent the wheel and got disastrous results. And now it seems that their foolish pride won't let them revert to the way that it was before. They have somehow convinced themselves that this clusterfuck of a traffic management plan is an improvement.

    See what I mean? Everybody has an excuse to blow off the game and then try to blame the fans that attend. I was at the game to the end, as usual. Lots of people from out of town come to games. Lots of assholes stay at home and bitch about empty seats.

    Yep, they ran out of the large bottles of water. My Margarita, didn't have the normal kick before game.

    If you were drinking margaritas, that's why the concession stand ran out of water. Nothing dehydrates me worse.

    I actually didn't realize this until moving the Dallas, the Tex-Mex capital of the world. I've since become an expert in margarita sciences. My favorite is at La Hacienda Ranch (they claim to have invented the frozen margarita in 1971.)
