Honest question here because I don't know- why are small children around the student tailgating area?

Possibly playing from the floats in the parade? Other than that, I don’t see why kids would be around the frats.

I honestly can’t figure out where the morality line is and why everyone is so hellbent on drawing it to begin with. It’s okay to blast music with profanities from the speakers of the stadium but not okay if 18-21 year olds blare it from their parade floats/tailgates? It’s okay for underage kids to drink but not okay to smoke weed or vice versa depending on who you ask? No wonder our games aren’t fun. It’s a social acceptability p!$$ing match instead of a party.

If it was during the parade, that would be different than in their tailgating area(s). JMO

Amen

Frats are seeing how far they can push the administration...in other news, with Troy packing in 28k last night in their Thursday night game and with the previous Frat news of the day, I predict under 200 students will show for the USM game, our crowd will number under 14k, and if all goes according to plan, expect a packed 30k+ crowd at Troy. By that I mean with the Western Championship on the line...

It is NEVER ok to blare profanity laced music in public.

Recreational use of marijuana is completely ILLEGAL in Louisiana.

These 2 things should not be promoted are allowed anywhere near Cajun Field. 18-20 year old drinking is a completely different matter. It is a stupid law that never should have happened, but it is still a law. Given our culture, there is a lot of wiggle room here. You just can't be so obvious about it, and you shouldn't go ultra-Karen on people because of it.

Not trying to argue, more just clarifying…

So you’re saying that if you believe a law is stupid, and that’s it’s part of “our culture”, then it’s ok? I’m sure a lot of people would make that argument for pot. Not just today, but at any point over the last half century.

Hopefully we can get a solid crowd for USM game. That's the school that should get our fanbase excited to play as a rival but who knows these days

It was on the float.

The person doing the music in the stadium is no longer there. I have not heard any profanity at the stadium since they have left.

Pot has a culture to itself, but it has never been part of everyday culture for the vast majority of people, especially those raising children. Also, today's pot is not your Uncle's pot. I've seen way too many OD deaths in our ER from pot that just happened to be laced with Fentanyl.

The whole drug culture is one that I vehemently oppose. It is destroying a generation of youth.

Agreed. It’s all these vape pens. Kids take a hit from those without even know what is in there.

We play a song with the lyrics, “drinkin dope turned me to a superhero” multiple times per game. Again: where is the line in this bizarro society? Curse words? Oh my heavens no. Drug talk? Crank it up. For me personally, I don’t care if we play it in the stadium as long as it’s part of a mix where the crowd attending the games is consistently considered in what they would like to hear. And for God’s sake please don’t judge and condemn our students for doing essentially the same as what our own administration deems as acceptable.

Yet they played the same type music in the dome this past Monday night. Doubt me, just break out your phone when the lyrics start, identify the song, get the lyrics.

If anything like that comes from a fan or a student, they’d get run.

Why do so many of these posts or threads involve students telling parents things about these situations.... I don't really recall me or my classmates telling our parents things that happened to us at school or inner workings of campus organizations. Not sure if that is a good or bad component of this generation or is it being discussed by parents simply inflating (and/or miscommunicating) the flames?

I hear what you are saying and do not disagree. Your just making more points for why weed should be legal. Weed you buy at a dispensary will not be laced with Fentanyl.

I'm just want to see it legal in the hopes of another generation of great music. :)
