Another thing we should do is script Cajuns where we dot the j, wonder if we could do it? All we would have to do is make it smaller i think that would be an awesome tradition we could start!

You ask a fair question. Will keep feedback to only waterfowl and deer seasons. For a number of years the Louisiana West Zone opening day is second Saturday of November and East Zone opens the 3rd Saturday of November. My understanding is bird migrations are driven by changing photo period, the relative length of day and night during a 24 hour period. Weather and food sources also greatly influence waterfowl migrations, too. Louisiana duck season is among the latest opening dates in the USA since we're at the bottom of the flyway. When college football regular season was 11 games there was less overlap. There is much more college football season overlap with whitetail deer season. Louisiana (LDWF) has 10 distinct 'areas' with staggered opening dates beginning in mid-October. By 3rd week of November all 10 deer areas are open for rifle hunting. Traditional date for deer bow season opener is October 1st. IMO, LDWF has fine tuned season dates and number of days. They make a few calendar tweaks now and then based on science or harvest data. Other than a home game being scheduled on Thanksgiving weekend, or 11 a.m. kickoffs, I don't see hunting season being a major negative influence on football attendance.

Interesting how hunting season seems to only hurt G5 school attendance but never impacts the P4 schools. UL's issues are more than a hunting season excuse, but they never seem to address them.

We need to create a Ragin Cajun camo pattern or do a licensing agreement with a firm like Realtree or Mossy Oak. Have camo night at the stadium. Players' jerseys in camo, too. Fans wearing camo apparel with a Ragin Cajun logo on it get a free mini football or something.

Great idea. We need to get away from the outdated RaginCajun logo we use and move to the script Cajuns logo. We already use it on all of our uniforms. I would dot the "J" with a FDL and have the tuba player who dots the "j" have a fdl on the tuba. That would be our pre-game band tradition like Ohio State.

Now that is a great idea!!! Love the FDL idea, just get a FDL tuba bell covering!!

We could even play a march like Ohio State. Marching the route to spell Cajuns.

Totally down! I got one better always love this one!!!

Best American March! No one does it either!! I chose the 3 min version because thats what it might take to spell out Cajuns like OSU does.

We could have the ROTC or members from the National Guard leading the way!!

Drum Major, ROTC holding American Flag, the Louisiana Flag, Acadiana Flag etc. leading into the spelling of Cajuns!! It would be iconic!

That would be awesome, then you lead into the National Anthem for Football games!!

Instead of the tuba we can do our own spin and have The guy holding the American Flag dot the j?

We could still come out the tunnel doing a fanfare and thr UL fight song etc. we wouldn’t have to give that up
