Alumni Association = Stupid Run Organization

[Jacob81]

Is it common for a host school to stick it to the visiting tailgaters(alumni) like that. Does the AA need a better negotiator?

Again, this is being funded by the LCVC, Lafayette Convention and Visitors Center (hence, no ULL). Who negotiated, unknown. Look at the flyer.

I’m not a fan of our “@Lafayette AA”, but it’s fair to think our tourism office may have possibly cut the deal.

In all fairness, they have been interviewing a new director. No hire yet!

Oh well if UL isn’t Paying for it who cares. Haha. Btw I’m not an alum and don’t have a flyer.

It just seems like example. SLU says they want to setup an alumni tent at Cajun field we would carve them out a spot for free. Or am I wrong again, nothing is free.

Where did you get that info from? This is not what I have been told.

Your tax dollars. Not mine. This was not in the original memo that was sent to everyone.

If the LCVC is funding this event, then why are we asking a family of 5 to pay $250 to tailgate for a few hours?

Austin:
"The event costs $25 for admittance, including cold beverages and a Texas-style barbecue lunch!"

Rice:
"Cost to attend the tailgate is $50 per person and includes food and drinks."

Unless this has some kind of Trade Show exposure value why would LCVC sponsor an out of town event?

Will there be a gigantic LCVC banner?
