In fairness to the school, I'm pretty sure one of our coaches requested more piped in music to overcome dwindling / lack of crowd noiseQuote:

I’m pretty comfortable saying most here would not tolerate discussions using that language continuously (or at all) in front of their spouse/children.
The dome did cut it back sound wise some during the season to their credit.
Age should have nothing to do with decency.Quote:

And guess what, it's the one thing they have been good at.

Stadiums get renovated and people have to move seats during construction. Inconvenience but fans adapt to a simple solution & continue supporting the program.
Covid makes us switch seating & limit attendance. Inconvenience but fans adapt to a simple solution & continue supporting the program.
Hurricane passes through the area. People come together, help each other out, & move forward.
Tornado passes through New Iberia. People come together, help each other out, & move forward.
UL switches to only mobile ticketing. Fans go crazy, find every possible thing that can go wrong, threaten not to buy tickets, threaten to quit supporting the program. Where did the Louisiana spirit go? First sign that things won't go perfect for some fans and they want to quit supporting on the spot. I saw on Facebook once response from a person saying they were part of the "older" generation that everyone says won't show up. They said they will adapt, figure it out, and still support the program. That's the attitude all fans should have!
. . . at least we didn’t get tarps . . .Quote:

. . . print the tickets and put them in your pocket . . . Is it that hard . . . and make sure your printing has a good picture of the bar code . . . 4 pages of cheese just for this . . . Geeze . . .

I’ve been to saints playoff game with a quarter million people in and around the dome and my phone still works. 12k at Cajun field and you get no service. Not sure how me paying extra to get printed tickets effects you in anyway. If you could still use a screenshot it wouldn’t matter.Quote:

This is prep for the new stadium.
Swift as swift can be.
I have had issues getting mobile tickets scanned at Astros games. Same as everywhere else. I was sent to the next scanner since that one wasn't working.Quote:

Of course, the typical reaction will be that the university is stupid and this is USLing it like always.Quote:
