We go once every couple of years. We know ways to avoid major traffic, plus the spectacle of being in the most attended sporting event anywhere is too hard to pass up. The whole massive tailgate outside the stadium stuff, the bands, the warm ups, it's just a wonderful time. We plan to go to one late in the year.

Lately we do at home tailgating using a DVR. Start the game an hour late, fast forward through the ads and halftime. More time for partying before and after as well! No one who comes is allowed to look at game scores early........

The atmosphere is great, magical and I love all of that just not the huge crowds. Actually, I do go to a game every couple of years. Usually when I have houseguests or when the weather is cooler. Its supposed to turn very cool this weekend and it would be a good night to go. Even though LSU almost always plays at night its still south LA and when that many people are sitting that close together it is s-t-e-a-m-y. I can’t avoid the traffic, since my neighborhood is just off a direct route to the campus. Ironically, I used to go to some Vandy games when the crowds were much smaller and the weather was easier to take. LOL.
