Gata.... noone wants to tailgate in a fricking parking deck.


I'm not talking about tailgating there. You can tailgate wherever, but getting shite in and out, decks are a good option.

If you were still looking at green at, my brother and I will be at the forestry school tailgate. He lives down near destin and has plenty of lsu friends, one of whom was supposed to come with him, but I think had to back out.

For me and my buddies that are all 20, what are the cops like for MIPs? Hopefully not undercover ABC everywhere like LSU games

Ah very true. I'm dreading the day that I come to the first home game and Adams has decided to make the lot permit only.

for about 10 years me and my cousin parked behind the anthropology building, when you're coming down jackson and it hits the intersection of baldwin st, there's that little driveway on the left that curves back around the building. We used to park there forever, and when I lived in rivermill I'd park there friday night. One year, I think it was 2009, we get there at about 7 and it's frickin permit only.

it's only a matter of time before there is no free parking anywhere close to the stadium anymore.


You don't have to worry about Adams anymore.

I know the anthropology lot very well, I spent alot of time in that building, and also lived in Rivermill, but about a decade before you.


Gatorhata9, tell me more about parking in a parking deck and then lugging coolers, chairs, trash bags, umbrellas, radios, propane grill, etc from a parking deck to a nice grassy area, then hauling it all back to the parking deck when you are done.

I've never tried that. It always seemed like too much trouble. Am I missing something?

What is an MIP?



ETA- if you are walking around with a solo cup you won't get bothered unless yall actually look young... some 20 year olds look 25 and some look 15, just be honest with yourselves on how old you look. Even if one of you looks like a pipsqueak, he could get you all busted.

Got it, we should be fine then. At LSU games they actively look out for it so as long as they don't do that I'm sure we'll be fine. We probably won't walk around with beer just to be safe though

Don't piss in a non-designated location (don't wander into alleys), don't drunkenly wander into the street at night, put drinks in cups, etc. Basically, just don't be an idiot. ACCPD has a lot to deal with on gamedays. Just don't make yourself an easy target.

When, tailgating during the day? If you're at a tailgate no worries. if you're walking around on the sidewalk or wherever, make sure whatever you have is in a cup. Don't just be walking around down the sidewalk with a drink. And obviously, being underage, be smart. Don't jaywalk or walk in the street or do something stupid. Just act normal.

By the way... on campus etc, you are less likely to get harrassed. Actually zero chance you get harrassed by a cop for drinking out of a solo cup if you aren't starting trouble, pretty much any designated parking area, you will be safe.


On the streets of Athens, however... just remember, it isn't New Orleans.

Make sure you keep it on campus if you can. The second you step off campus with a drink, they'll get you.

If it's downtown late night after the game, DO NOT JAYWALK. Seriously. Also, there is NO walking around with a drink, solo cup or not.

14 years after Peter Buck's Heisman race, 14 years before Gatorhata9's first weed purchase behind the Russell Hall tennis courts.

Really? Well, since you asked, don't be a prick, don't act like a prick, don't smell like corn dogs and don't walk around with an open container...even if it is in a cup.
