The opening week was pretty slow with Hurricane Gustav bearing down on Louisiana. Many tailgaters kept it simple by hanging out just before the game then heading out to prepare for the storm. Many tailgating spots usually occupied by faithful fans were left vacant.

LSU fans now have to worry about Hurricane Ike’s destination. “Take A Hike, Ike” is a phrase that has become commonplace in Baton Rouge. As of now, there has been no decision made as to where the LSU-North Texas matchup will take place. Hopefully we will see the Tigers play in Death Valley if Ike continues its westward path.
