REGIONAL WATCH PARTY

Nah. Cajun4life seems to have that part down. LOL.

Oh no, his word count is not high enough..

Why don’t those establishments come bring food to the Tigue instead?

Or invite local food trucks, advertise the hell out of it. Let them keep the proceeds and use the even at a “new season ticket” drive. Hire a band and just eat the cost. Do it for the entire regional.

Make it a tradition and have an annual regional watch party at the Russo Park. Have renderings of the clubhouse and fundraising goals for it to be kicked off and where we are in that process.

it’s not that hard!

Lol. You are the one that blamed not opening the park on the game being at 1:00 on Friday while failing to realize there would be more than one game played. The entire poor of the discussion is to open the Tigue and use it as a recruitment tool. Again, you read what you want to read.

No, I gave deference to the administration. I said it isn’t unreasonable. I then explained reasons why it probably isn’t worth it.

But sure, whatever you say

It’s not giving deference to them when it’s the only stance you ever take..

Get out of here with that rational logic!

Imagine sending a video to the boys and coaches of the fans supporting them at the Tigue while they are in Florida.

Then using that video as a recruiting tool for future fans and potential players.

There really is not a big obstacle stopping this from happening. It's excuses that are holding us back.

Maybe there isnt enough staff. Maybe its too short notice. Maybe its 100 other reasons other than a "lazy admin"... (bring on the "yOu ArE A sHiLl 4 tHe AdMin AnD aN LsU fRaUd" comments)

Its a cost benefit analysis. They dont see the benefit compared to the cost, and I dont think that's unreasonable. If we had 5k in the stadium every week like the last time they did a watch party, that would be one thing. The excitement isnt there like it was back in 2014-16.

Especially considering there are several sponsors with space where a watch party can happen.

Didn't see this post originally.

Quick question. If we opened the gates, turned on the lights and the video board; would it REALLY hurt us that bad financially? If we did this right, I would look at it like a marketing tool. We all know that marketing usually causes business to eat a little bit of cost. But this can actually bring about a net benefit if we promote things like RCAF or season tickets for 2024 in this. Also, we weren't drawing crowds of 5k in 2015 which was the year they did this; and it was a hit.

It’s archived right here on this board. Over and over again.

God forbid fans have ideas to grow the base and the bank account. I know to some, that’s just a blasphemous thought. How dare we think we “know better” than the professionals!

I came here to promote an idea after a very VERY popular and positive response on social media, in private and among diamond club members who can’t make the trip to Miami. You, in particular, took exception. For what reason? Who the hell knows.. Nothing I proposed was direct, negative, unreasonable, unprecedented, impractical or otherwise ridiculous.

The positive impact on social media and local news media alone would be worth every cent.
