I know we're dunking on Coach Chris right now, and I'm SOOOO here for it, but this is the exact thinking that has decimated any real chance at a robust fanbase for 60 years. The "take it or leave it approach" as someone else perfectly stated.
There is a reason we can't get above 2K donors in RCAF. There is a reason we can't get 20K in CF. There is a reason we can't draw flies to the CD without Russell dressing up in a 50 year old Chicken costume. All we have to do is look around. As the Beestie Boys once said, "ITS SABOTAGGGGEEEE."
Students go where the drinking is.. We used to drive to BR on Saturdays because LSU's student tailgating was a free for all. We weren't there supporting LSU -- never attended a game -- we were there because it was a wild college party in every direction.
Then come to Cajun Field and wander around the parking lot , and if you manage to get your hands on a beer there's plenty of cops to write you an MIP.
It's amazing to watch a university named Louisiana Ragin Cajuns lean so hard away from everything that that name would imply.
So “Family Day” is being used as a reason…but I have a question.
Should we want EVERY home game to be “Family Day” at Cajun Field? Shouldn’t we want entire families showing up all 6 games a season?
And if so, then what good does this one Saturday promotion really do, and especially what good does it do if you trying to hide the “ugliness” of the Greek orgs for just that one day?
And don’t some of the Greeks have families too that show up at Cajun Field? Maybe some more than just this one Saturday per season.
