Football Attendance Comparison

Did they? It didn't seem to affect overall attendance

Remember the ban on leaving the stadium and not being allowed back in?

This prevented a lot of tailgaters from coming in at all.

I think our fans would view the LSU game differently than Miss State and our allotment of tickets would be sold in a heartbeat, as would theirs. Easily a sell-out.

Superdome would be sold out within hours if not minutes!

The biggest issue around Lafayette and area is all the stores that sale shirts, hats, etc. are 80% LSU, 15% Saints and 5% Cajuns. Hell, even or damn TV stations are all about LSU. There has got to be something we can do to get this city and metro area to the games. Move to the Big12 or ACC and this would fix our problem day 1!!!

Would definitely stay home for that one. Lsu fans are even more insufferable in Nola

1k? Pretty sure my spot is 500 bucks and no one TGs alone, split with a couple of friends that is nothing. Plus I am pretty sure all the reserved TG spots are sold.

Not picking on anyone, but I think this is one of our major concerns when it comes to making changes to enhancing game experiences. People in general make suggestions for the athletic department to consider and when they do follow through, some fans are ____ed because those enhancements come with a price tag. The cost of game day operations increase yearly, an changes to parking, tailgating and other ancillaries will have a cost attached. They are not going to make enhancements for free. The cost will be absorbed by the consumer.

CF doesn't have the room to do this, but the point is, as I've mentioned here before, our Athletic Dept/Marketing could learn a ton from these guys..

"Premium" seating is sitting in the end zone at ground level?

I'm just the messenger...my point is that they are being creative with what they have

[GeauxCajuns]

I think ULM has that same set up

Louisiana should be scouring the country for ideas.

Not all will work here, but the research might light a spark.

My half cocked suggestion: Every single pregame should be something. completely different.

We don’t have room to do that in the stadium. But there was once talk years ago of leveling off the north end zone hill and selling some sort of tailgating / ticket pass where you could by a spot and never leave your area for the game.

Minimal return on the terrain destruction.

Four Oaks would have to go, and only about 5 or 6 tailgate spots would benefit.
