USM plays at ULM this fall and.....

[atobulldog]

Dude go! Such a short trip. I went to a ULM/Baylor game and while it was a war hawk game the atmosphere was solid. Of course they were up to play a big 12 school.

It was also during the first part of the year, their fan base hadn't been demoralized yet.

GO!! when you are die hard fan ( which most of us know you are) -you go to any reachable game, I have gone to way to many games that we got crushed over last 50 plus years and enjoy watching us crush occasionally. unless you can think of somewhere else better to be-do not miss it. for me, being at a Tech game is hard to beat-- get a chance to watch the second team if things go the way it should

DS65 is spot on. Don't let the quality of opponent keep you away from a driveable game.

It was a Friday game. They got tons of free promotion from the community, gave free tickets to high school students and other community members, and shamed almost every local school to change their games to Thursday. All this following a win over a bad Arkansas team and a close game over a bad Auburn team. They then lost this (claimed) SRO game to an average Baylor team. 75% of those in attendance that Friday have never been back.

My two cents, SE: go. It's a very underwhelming gameday experience, but go support the Golden Eagles. If you need tips on where to stay/eat in Monroe, let me know. Lived there for forvever until i got a job in Little Rock.
Monroe is coming along culturally, but the football team there... eh..

Examples please. They don't even mow the grass.

They got a Buffalo Wild Wings a few years ago.

No that was West Monroe.

Monroe is corrupt and really has nothing going for it.

Save your time and money - USM should easily win and USM will have more fans in the stadium than ULM. As a previous poster stated, if you like LSU Football then a ULM football Saturday is the place for you. It really is a sad place for a college football game.

Meh, it's all one city.

I wouldn't bet on it yet. The mayor thinks he still has Obama money being fed to him.

Yes, except for the mowing and trash pickup beginning on the west side. Lots of burning sofas can be seen on the east side along I-20.

Bossiers CenturyLink Center envy. good luck with that mayor Mayo. I wouldn't be sure that the phrase, "build it and they will come" really applies in this case. If you build a lager more modern facility, its gonna take a larger group to take care of it. mo money mo money mo money

One of his comments was, "If we don't build it here, they will build one in West Monroe". He is all about community.

Leave Monroe alone PawDawg. I like it just the way it is. My house value in Sterlington has risen about $60000 since 2011. I think Mr Mayo is doing a fine job
