Win The Event?

[Turbine]

The fact that nothing happened and fans had "think about it" is very telling. The fact that I had to guess 71/72 is depressing. I should know this stuff.

It reminds me of why I started RaginPagin.

The school was teaching that Louisiana started football in 1908 and an LSU media guide said the two schools had played in 1902.

Somethig wasn't right and it started me on my research quest where I uncovered the fact that Stephen's believed in the the front porch philosophy so much that he ordered uniforms almost as soon as the doors opened.

Louisiana had football in year one.1901.

It took the school THREE years to acknowledge my findings.

3 years? I would have thought at least 5...

So, UL missed a golden opportunity to a 50th anniversary destignated game last year, complete with vintage video, ex players being honored, maybe the 10 best cajun players to ever play at CF, player representatives from each decade being honored, autograph sessions taking place prior to game, Video confessions of players from each decade talking about CF/Game/etc. Maybe the band playing songs from each of the 5 decades..could have been a great halftime show...so much that could have been done to celebrate and teach casual fans and students about UL football tradition...all the while, kicking someones Sun Belts azz on the field....

This is as a damning a revelation as any we've discussed over the last few weeks. We couldn't even figure out a way to capitalize on the fact that our stadium is old af. Something we talk about CONSTANTLY. This is not an oversight. This is just being dead asleep at the wheel. This is people in positions that truly have no historical knowledge, emotional tie or any thing in their minds other than promoting themselves and getting on to the next stop.

And once again, our fans are the ones that notice it. Remarkably bad.

They had some graphic of Cajun Field with the "50 Years" font behind it. Outside of that, we did nothing to promote.

And a great way to recognize OLOL and those making the big donations for a new stadium

Back to Gulf Brew 2022.

Where is our trolley guy that goes from Rock'n Bowl to Legends to CF on gameday? We need him to be posted up downtown, shuttling people from Gulf Brew to the CajunField Saturday.

I also like 4 PM. Sun on east side is only reason I can think of for lack of students. However, I drove on St Mary earlier in week and did not see any reminders about game today

[CajunEXPRESS]

There’s absolutely no logical reason why the students can’t spread closer to the fifty. We, UL, should be kissing every one of their asses. If a student gets out of line with visiting team then deal with that person.
