Oh thanks, I wasn't aware.

$1.00 a night then.

McNeese rents out camper space at Burton Coliseum.

I really like the idea of renting the RV sites outside football weekends. I know a few people that tailgate Baseball game would love to have a plug in instead of using their generator. Baseball would charge us $400 for the season when we had RV sites along first base.

Not trying to sound like an _______ or anything, but what if they would still there by week 1? Sounds like that could be a problem.

That's what I was thinking, awkward situation telling displaced people to get to stepping...we need to tailgate here.

I just know how these things work from Rita and Katrina and if people are waiting for FEMA or insurance money could be in those RVs for a while.

Any idea why the camper hookups at Cajun Field haven't (at least temporarily) been donated to evacuees?

"Campers hook up at cajun field" was thinking something totally different

Plus isn't that area used for student parking M-F?

You are not being a jerk for considering potential pitfalls.

UL has a 2-week window to help.

You state up front that these spots are reserved and ask a few questions.

Like "Would it help for you and your family to have a parking location for two weeks before you have to find other options?"

The people this would benefit are generally home owners in flooded areas.

I know after Rita it took almost 2 weeks in my neighborhood for the flood waters to subside.

Louisiana Economic Development encouraged businesses impacted by this month's severe flooding to take advantage of federal, state and charitable assistance being set up to help them.

Answer is probably "no current plans" but I will ask the question anyway.

Does anyone know of any current plans to run electrical hookups throughout the other tailgate areas? This would totally eliminate the generator issue that we have every year.

when will they start catering all of the tailgates too, and provide tents for all the spots. i mean they arent doing _____.

come on now, some of it still has to be on the tailgaters themselves.

It could make sense if they charged accordingly.

It would make a lot more sense if they turned some of those spots into a year round source of revenue.
