Students Returning to Their Old Spot(s)

But. but, are we giving them covered walkways from the tailgating area to the rest room?

They are gonna take care of this problem in the stadium renovation when they add a soccer canopy around all of Cajun Field.

The question of how was almost immediately put on the backburner.

It didn’t take many discussions with UL students for the new athletic department’s marketing group to recognize what was needed.

The idea of the student’s tailgating area for Ragin’ Cajuns home football games being at Bourgeois Park_— across Cajundome Boulevard from the Lamson Park/Bourgeois Hall parking lot_— just no longer made sense.

When did it EVER make sense????

These are significant changes to encourage student buy in and involvement in sporting events. I hope now that students are getting what they want, they will approve a modest assessed athletics fee similar to their peer institutions in the conference and around the country.

Why should all students be assessed athletics fees? Not asking for a friend.

All students get charged $5-$10 for cheerleaders and the band so why not charge them the same for athletics.

Not ragging on you but makes as much sense as charging athletes a fee for the engineering dept or any other extra curricular activity not associated with athletics

Except that it happens at 90% of universities in this great country...

Being athletics is the front porch and every single alum benefits from a prominent athletics program...id say all stand to potentially benefit down the line from an investment in the form of semesterly fee...

I'm happy as a lark the student tailgating is coming back close to The Swamp.

Geaux the extra mile and return them to the ORIGINAL RED ZONE.

It’s a slow news day so I’ll play along. How?

Without athletics there would be no McNeese, no Nicholls.

Without athletics UL would be a Louisiana College or smaller, and LSU would be a school for the deaf.
