One of these days, bars are going to learn to prepare for visiting LSU fans. Earlier this year, a Nashville bar memorably ran out of vodka on the morning of Vanderbilt-LSU gameday. A hotel in Atlanta is the latest bar to be drained by LSU fans. Sports Illustrateds Ross Dellenger shared that the Marriott Marquis, which has been designated the LSU team hotel in Atlanta, has run out of bottled beer at 5 p.m. ET.

You know the way that headline is worded I thought they were supposed to write: ‘LSU fans drink bottled beer out of Atlanta hotel’.
Seems could be written a bit better than it is.

There are plenty of stores where they could have bought more beer in the area. Restocking would not have been a problem. Were they just fishing for a story?
The 11th, 12th, and 13th are going to be some wild nights in New Orleans.
New Orleans is going to be ROCKING for the BCS Championship game Jan. 13th ACC vs SEC
However, the conductor announced that we would be stopping at La Junta, Colo. for about a half an hour, and that there was a liquor store about a block from the station. So when the train stopped, the passengers bolted for the store--and I was one of the first in line.
Eventually, the train was resupplied with beer. But based on that experience (the train was 14 hours late getting in and 12 hours late getting home), I have never since ridden Amtrak and most likely never will again.

You could take the crescent train ATL-NO
Tickets may be limited
I used to take the Southern Crescent Limited from New Orleans to New York, in the good old days of drawing rooms at Pullman porters. That was the way to travel.
Okay. But did the LSU fans start turning over rocks, looking for dinner?
That’s a very safe bet.
Them people from Baton Rouge do know how to chug-a-lug!
Lol
I love the Atlanta Marriott Marquis. I go there often. I love the bar under the massive curved atrium.
Can’t believe they ran out of anything!
Well, as long as they still had some on tap, and/or in cans, I reckon all but the snobs will survive.
And more than a few folks will likely be wildly miserable for a day or three thereafter ;-)
Stayed there for a few DragonCons.
NOLA will never run out of booze.
Saves a lot on unrecoverable costs of damage to property and long-term loss of other clients who want a safe, sane place to stay.
Let the boozers find a different pigsty to barf and fight in. You can tell the ones who booze by the company they choose. Eventually, even the pigs will get up and walk away.

Just the females. This is the South, you know.
