Hey dumbarse, LSU had all the seats removed in the north and east stands this year. And the south was a construction zone. Which is why we had over 10,000 less than last spring.
I've seen this used as an excuse by other LSU fans...and I am truly not trying to troll...but, even missing those seats, why would that affect the attendance? i mean, there were empty seats that were available, I am guessing. Just because SOME seats were unusable.....
Do you think they stayed away because they didn't want to get around the construction, or were the available seats bad? I KNOW how rabid LSU fans are about their football...just seems odd to me.

About 3/4 of the stadium had the seats removed to reseal the concrete.

At Tiger Stadium, bleachers in the east, north and west sections of the lower bowl have deteriorated and will either be replaced or reinstalled depending on their condition, David said. The south section will not be treated because maintenance was done two years ago. The process starts with the removal of all bleachers in the aforementioned areas, David said. The concrete where the bleachers were removed will then be cleaned and waterproofed. David said waterproofing involves application of a topical coating to the concrete.
The replacement or reinstallation of the bleachers will complete the project, making for sturdier seating on gamedays while protecting the concrete structure of the stadium for long-term use. These precautions will be complete before the first home game of the coming season on Sept. 6, David said. They will amount to $1.6 million.
