Homecoming attendance? 18,132 (merged)

I get what you’re saying in the first part and agree.

As for the 2nd part...if we were somehow 5-0 right now with wins over Miss State and Bama, you’d have a butt in every seat and patch of grass at Cajun Field. If anything, even just LSU fans curious to see what the hell our team is about.

Of course, that’s not the case right now.

I dont think we'd sell out. We dont have any sort of supply and demand at cajun field. Just anyone can get a ticket and there's no buzz and excitement around it. You mentioned lsu and they have people on a waiting list to spend their life savings to get season tickets. But its "too expensive nowadays here" and cant give away tickets even with reduced costs promos like mcdonalds family fun pack, etc.

Just to keep things in perspective before Hud got here 22,000 was a damn good attendance day. I’d be happy with that. I hope the good weather will bring out more fans.

The problem is that the new stadium expansion makes a crowd of 22,000 look empty as ****. Another problem is that they maked the middle sections of the East side off for reserved seating but couldn’t actually sell tickets there. So it stays empty.

fortunately , we are in south central La. and he s going to florida

He will also hit land on Wednesday and game is not until Saturday. By Saturday, Michael will be in Atlantic. Bigger factor is Tigers game conficting with ours to some degree.

FYI, LSU doesn't have a waiting list for season tickets. They didn't sell all their season tickets this season.

These students suck, plain and simple. No sugar coating it. I was at the Texas State game, and they had about 2-3k students there (in the first half) for a terrible team, with ACL going on down the road. I don't think there is a worse student section in the Sunbelt than UL. Maybe Georgia State, but I can't confirm that, yet.

ETA: 19,450
300 students

LSU/UGA keeps away 5k

They weren't always bad.


Someone sent the message that they didn't matter.

Someone needs to send the message that they are needed.

Predicted 25k last week. Sticking with it.

Best gameday weather in several years. Best group of running backs in the history of the school. We might have 2 future NFL RBs on the same roster. We've got the best tailgating in the country. It's Homecoming. Gonna be a very good game.

The place to be Saturday afternoon is not at home on a beautiful Fall afternoon watching those other guys. The place to be is Cajun Field.

People will show up to watch the Louisiana Pain Train.

Better than Alonzo Harris and Elijah McGuire combo? I’m not saying they are not, but both of those guys have actually played in the nfl.
