    Are there even 20,000 in Baton Rouge Tiger Stadium today? Well, at least they can't boo very loudly.

    I know i seen that....I do feel sorry for the Saints...They said they feel bad ppl are trying to rebuild their homes and here they are playing there putting pressure on them to buy tickets...LSU was mainly at the Miami game to see Saban...LSU should do their part and buy tickets also.....If they want the games there next year, they need to act like they want them there....We can't blame NOLA for that....

    There are a lot less than I thought were going to be there. This is why I think Herdberger and Benson should have kept their holes shut and just waited to things like today's attendance speak for itself to demonstrate the real struggles ahead. But I guess there is no drama that way............

    Iam even more angry hearing LSU sold out of their 91,000 stadium last nite and yet they cannot support the SAINTS???? NOLA should not be expected to buy majority of the tickets, LSU needs to step up and if they don't then put pressure on them.

    I would think the ticket prices are substantially different for an LSU game than a Saints game so thet could be a big factor in the 91,000.

    There are two more BR home games. After that there is the SA home game. IMHO SA will have to really step up to the plate and show up for that last game more than the other two. Otherwise, attendance arguements can be thrown out the window if SA still wants to make a case.

    I think what is killing them is the Saints games are following the next day after the LSU games....Hard schedule for most ppl to follow. I still think LSU needs to step up.

    This city has had enough years of limp wristed leadership...

    Let hamburger open fire and put in an effort...

    This is why Spurs don't have an arena downtown near the riverwalk like they should. Cause they had to wait for Neilson Wolf to bail them out.

    If Louisiana wants to keep them, they should split the cost of an infill field with the NFL. Look at the mosh pit developing. It's going to be toast during the 4th quarter.

    They have tickets available for as little as $15 for the Baton Rouge games. That's half of the minimum $30 at the A-Dome. Well, at least this should put to rest any notions of a Lousiana Saints regional team. These people don't give a rat's ass about the Saints. Scheduling in Louisiana next year would be fiscal suicide.

    One would think that Tag and everyone else knew how desperate that area was and kept them away so as not to burden those people. Just let us take care of the team while they get up and running again. But nooooooooo. The bruhaha between San Antonio and the Gulf Coast is all Tag's fault.

    And they shouldn't be playing in the ing mud!!!

    Exactly! And there are two BR games left this season. After all the lost $$$$ lets see if Tags really wants to fork out that much cash to keep the Saints afloat in La. This no longer just affects NO and La. but the NFL as a whole.

    That's why I think the last game in SA is important. If the Alamodome is only half full then SA doesn't have a leg to stand on.

    BTW, they just showed a wide angle shot of the overall stadium and I would be surprised if there were more than 10,000.

    Well i'll be there and who is all going from here??? Maybe we could do a tailgate together....

    I'll be there!

    Well when it gets closer i'll see who all is planning on tailgating...I know McKensie will be there also...

    I think Kori and LJ have tickets. I'm still on the fence. My flight to my sister's for XMas leaves at 4:45. The game ends at 3:00-3:15. That's a pretty close shave, probably too close.

    32,000 and change, allegedly. Were they counting all of the sideline personel from both teams, the officiating crew, the TV crew, and the band?

    I haven't been handed them yet. I don't know if they are where I was for Buffalo or Atlanta. I need to make myself a note about that.

    And LMFAO!! at the attendance. No way that was 32,000 even if you DID toss in the band.

    Why? LSU is the better team, besides LSU can beat the saints by 30 any given Sunday.
