Too much volume for me!
The band they brought in was good, but the new location is directly across from our tailgate. Crazy loud which made talking to guests and friends impossible without shouting.
Same for the PA volume. Too loud!

Beyond embarrassing for an R1 school with 3 times the enrollment of Gambling to look like that. Mediocrity has a home at UL.
I found the PA to be much quieter but again I am now further from the speakers
It wasn't organized at all, regardless of the parking area. The man problem was not allowing multiple exits and lanes once turning on Congress. That is entirely run by the Lafayette Sheriff Department and their own exit plans on traffic movement. There is nothing Maggard can do about it. I asked because many people were not happy with the long wait just to exit the parking lot. And that was just with 23K.
the new concession locations were great the meat pie I had from the one in the endzone was outstanding, I got water and ice and had no problem with the line, there was no line for the restroom the time I went, the sound system was quieter than in past seasons and the band and fan engagement was perfect, the student section was packed and the white hard hats were a good touch. the only thing I saw that could be a minus was the Grambling band trying to play over the pa system and playing late into play development.
The Grambling fans showed up and were well engaged, the oak tree band was good just wish there was a bigger variety at the merch shop
overall aaa day especially with part of the stadium shut down
Looking across at the new construction last night, is it just me or is there going to be a lot less “regular” seating on that side? I counted 17 or so rows at the bottom where there used to be 40 or so. And that doesn’t include the upper deck. Am I missing something?
I was told once the home side was 16k and the visitors was 15k originally. Then the endzone added about 9k(40k total) If all that is accurate we should have about 23-24k now. Then the new home side will hold 6-7k to get us back to 30k.
Sorry for the math answer
Yep, just figured this will be something much better communicated for the next home game. These were just kinks in an otherwise great opening first game of the season.
It has never taken me more than 15 minutes to get home from a game before. The sheriff's department has always been great in moving traffic after a game.
