    It's up to both our University and the Lafayette/outlying Acadiana communities as well as businesses to make it the place to be, as of now all sides have dropped the ball!
    It is the place to be! Outside the stadium!

    The only problem with this is, like the previous poster mentioned, the lsubr issue. We could have the most unbelievable atmosphere on Saturday, and it won't matter to half of the people in Acadiana because they are either at an lsubr party or at the lsubr game itself.

    The REAL solution to all of this mess is to win over those people. We have to make it such that the average Joe, who only sees puke and purple, feels safe enough to change his allegiance from Louisiana State to Louisiana.

    thats odd, I have never waited in a long beer line, the one at the far end near my section never has more than 4 or 5 people waiting. I also have never waited long in the jambalaya booth, and I usually don't do the concession stand line since its one step above dog food anyway. If I want water or a soda I use the express booth

    Honestly I don't feel like we need to win over those walmart fans. I feel like we just need our Alumni to support the school they graduated from. We are the second largest University in this state, our graduates normally don't go far away. We should be able to draw 30,000 if our games are the place to be and have a great atmosphere. We need to make improvements to the gameday experience and get in better sync with our City/community.

    If you are one of the admins perusing RP, this is an alarm bell.

    I waited 30 minutes for popcorn and a water only to get told the popcorn machine was broken. Had to go to the SEZ and waited another 20.

    Conversation on social media is picking up steam. A few people saying they won't attend Gulf Brew over it. Imagine if the community at large responded like that...

    I avoid facebook, but hopefully the message reaches enough ears to make a difference. Everything matters even if it just makes a few people start to think differently.
