"LSU town" is defeatist and so ingrained in the psyche that it is virtually irrelevant.
Even if someone claimed 1/3 of Tiger Stadium is filled with Acadiana residents (not possible) there is still untapped potential for Louisiana growth.
So much potential, just add effort.
You are assuming that many people really like going to football games . . .
He has a point. Many people I know gave up their tickets and/or tailgating spots because of the rising cost of keeping them while the game experience has never really improved. You see it every week during the season here with the amount of griping that goes on about it. When the costs outweigh the experience certain people will choose to stay away.
You are right as there is room for growth but the question is how. Also, we're not just talking about attendance. You know how many UL alumni are in BR on gamedays just tailgating and watching from their spot? There are so many people who are alumni or didn't even go to UL that send there money and spend their time in BR. Its undeniable.
and once people make that decision, it’s hard to have it reversed . . . years of people making that decision even during winning years mount up and that is where we find ourselves today . . .
When you can't move the needle forward after a championship season, that's a problem.looking at you Maggard.
