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.

The flood victims in Youngsville needed help, and the Ragin' Cajuns came to the rescue.

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.
