No, Leonard Fournette has not passed away, nor has anything bad happened to him.
I'm talking about Tiger Stadium, it's a shell of what it use to be. Tiger Stadium has been the best stadium in the country for years and I still believe that it is the best Stadium in the Country. I believe it deserves better fans than its receiving on Saturdays. The truth of it is, LSU hasn't been the same at home since the 2012 Alabama game. That was the game that killed the program if you ask me not the 2011 NCG. We've had very few games in Tiger Stadium since then that have really got the billing of Death Valley on Saturday night. 2014 Ole Miss is the only one in recent memory that actually felt like a Saturday night in Death Valley.
This truly saddens me because I've been going to LSU games since I can remember and that Stadium is truly magic on a Saturday night in Fall. It was a place where opponents dreams came to die, it was intimidating, violent and loud. It's none of those things anymore, people aren't scared to play LSU at Night in Death Valley anymore. It's not the stadiums fault, it's just as beautiful as it's ever been.
The thing that has truly ruined the atmosphere in Death Valley are the shitty fans. When I goto games, I stay the whole game and if I ever do leave it's 1-2 minutes left in the game and we are blowing people out. The student section is terrible these days, from my short period of time being on this planet I've noticed how great the stadium can be to how terrible it can be. People who leave at half time are the worst kind of fans, if you don't like traffic don't come, if you want to drink bring in a flask, if you think it's too hot/cold wear proper clothing. The fans that goto games now are ruining tradition, and they don't deserve to own tickets.
I do think starting to sell alcohol to the general population in Death Valley would help with people staying, but they need to figure something out because Death Valley is only Death Valley for one or two games a year.
Oh yeah, frick you Alabama, Arkansas, Ole Miss, Faggies and State.
For the record I'm a positiger, who tries to find the good in all. There is nothing good in this.

No one cares bro. This is the sec rant. Post this shite on tigerdroppings

I don't want to, but I have to agree with you. Fans are more concerned with tailgating and taking selfies to post on social media so their friends know they're there... hopefully if we can get a few wins and see Etling throw it around a little, the fan base will maybe have a little something more to get pumped up and cheer for. Geaux Tigers!

A night game against UF last year when we were undefeated felt like a game at Davis Wade.

I mean, that happens at least to some extent at every stadium but I was watching some of the State game and the announcers remarked that it was less than half full. Late 3rd/early 4th.
Seemed odd

You sir, are a funny man

I think it's partially due to rising ticket prices which have reached a point where the rowdier portion of the fanbase is priced out and you end up with more affluent people who are more worried about after the game. It's also due to HDTV with every game being televised now. Lastly traffic is really bad the last couple years, I'm talking 2-3 hour bad to get home living as close as South Baton Rouge.

Does Miami have a on campus stadium?

A. Never understood why LSU thought it was impossible for opponents to win there. We've owned that fricker since day one.
B. Bama didn't kill the atmosphere in 2012 or whenever, it's just the only game that matters to this crop of LSU fans. Every game used to matter. It's more accurate to say Saban killed it because beating him means everything. Until u get as jazzed for florida, ole miss, auburn, etc it's not gonna be anything more than another venue except for one night every other year.

2014 vs Ole Miss and Bama was pretty lit.

So was Kentucky. That game was very loud.

Why because msu gsme emptied up 23-3 when we've won 25 out of 27. Stadium will be fine vs the meat of the sex schedule

Fournette has buyer's remorse, bridesmaid syndrome for the rest of his life... Should have gone to Bama and today would be the hands down unbeatable, indisputable HEISMAN WINNER
