2009 LSU Football Season Is Here

The biggest weekly event for Baton Rouge

Things To Do In Baton Rouge

The echoing sentiment around Baton Rouge has been �thank God it�s finally football season again�. You can�t help but get excited about another year of LSU football. We�re in the golden age of LSU sports and as far as partying and building up for games football is by far the biggest. It�s a celebration where people from all over the state come to Baton Rouge for home games and party for up to 36 hours before the game even starts. As far as I�m concerned there�s nothing better that happens in Baton Rouge and I�d say that if you ever have to find a reason to come here I�d do it plotting to go to an LSU game.

Everyone in the city comes together rallying around the University�s football team. The bars and restaurants all get ready for the huge influx of fans looking for places to watch the game or celebrate a win. Businesses replenish their stocks with the latest LSU merchandise to sell to eager fans. Everyone starts talking about plots to test out their new super BBQ pit, tailgating music system or other wild tailgating accessories. Come the Friday before the first game the whole city is wearing purple and gold. This is truly a football town that loves to party and it really brings out the best of what Baton Rouge has to offer.

If you�re an outside visitor looking to enjoy a great time come on out. If you�re friendly you�ll have no problem exploring campus until you find some outgoing tailgaters willing to take on outsiders. I�d suggest strolling down Nicholson Extension where you�ll find Touchdown Village and a large number of rowdy fun tailgates that setup around Taylor Hall and the edge of Touchdown Village in the free lot. If you�re looking for information on how to get there or where to go they have a great page of information including updated rules and areas at this page on LSUSports.net.
