Next thing we know is it’ll be racist when post secondary institutions begin hiring additional security to bring that cash out of facilities at the end of events.

This is life changing stuff

Will my insurance carrier accept the wheelbarrow full of cash I need to pay my homeowners premium?

I get it's a state university, but the concessions are run by people that aren't run by the state.

You don't need a state bill to simply put in your contract with all food vendors that they must accept cash payments. if they don't like it, the next vendor will.


This is the kind of stupid shite the gov't wastes time on.

LA legislature only tackles the biggest problems the state is facing.

I wonder if there was text in the bill that charges concession workers a fine if they don't stand at their register while the anthem plays

It was more an aggravation.

I'm happy to see something like this go through if it helps our program sell more concessions at athletic events. However, was it some key issue for Louisiana as a whole?

Of course not.

Any push back against a cashless society is a win. Do you want some institution or maybe the government to just press delete and all your money is gone?

Is this going to increase sales enough to offset the slower sales processing time? I'd be interested in seeing any data on this and if there are actual benefits.

It certainly won't. If anything it'll hurt because you're less likely to overspend if you're paying cash.

Before I got sober, I used to try to stare down Jeff Landry at Anytime Fitness in New Iberia.

I’m sure it will actually cost LSU money because of all the stealing that goes on with cash.

Like an above poster said, I won’t have the money to attend an LSU sporting event if they don’t get the homeowners insurance premiums fixed.
