Here’s an idea…we have a great green area north of Blackham. What a great green area to set up, like Ole Miss. Do away with tailgating at CF (no exceptions), sell as prime PARKING. No glass rule at green area. Hard rule, caught with glass, privilege lost next game (thinking ahead to intramural push back).

Block off CDB, Cajun walk from Bourgeious north. Parking at Blackham for casual fans.

I’ve said that for years. No brainer.

It would be a secret committee...everything else is

It’s like we have a glass ceiling of athletic success at UL mostly off the field. Who are we protecting state legislators, LSU, who? Our fans, alumni and students deserve better from this administration. If that means more money to hire staff or executive the innovative ideas here, just do it!

That’s makes zero sense. There’s not enough demand to fill the parking lots as they are now. You want to increase the premium parking? This would be the nail in the coffin for fan support.

Not true. Not sure if that sarcasm? But that would create a whole new tailgate area for the fan that doesn’t want to pay 500 per season and just wants to throw a tent up for the day. A much needed thing for UL.

Lmfao! Blows my mind. Best kept secret in all of college football

If you owned a brick and mortar business and your customers gave you changes to make that would entice them to buy more product from you. Oh and by the way, your competitors are selling on Amazon and shipping straight to your customer’s home. Would you attempt to make those changes or call your customer stupid and demand they still buy from you?

Either way if you give it away for free you gonna be out of business and that’s what many of those people expect.

“This is a people business, and the fans are our No. 1 priority,” Dickey said. “They are the foundation of this great institution, and we wouldn’t be anywhere without them.”

This is the right attitude!

If you give them an experience they will come

The thing is, the “diehards” here and on social media want to talk ____ to anyone who isn’t as diehard as them. Here’s the hard truth. The stadium is ____ing empty. If they want a foot rub at their seat, you entertain the idea. Until you sell out and have a waiting list, you try to do what your customers ask. If it’s parking, concessions, whatever. If you don’t, you’ll be stuck with the 15k “diehards” and _____ about why more people don’t come to games. To be honest, the only ones _____ing are the “diehards”. Why aren’t YOU holding the admin accountable?

The problem is we have one of the best parking situations in America for college football and people complain. You literally park across the street from the stadium for free. We don't have a parking problem here.
