LSU adds new entry gates on north side of Tiger Stadium for more fan options

BATON ROUGE – Fans coming to the Mississippi State game on Saturday will be able to access the expanded footprint of Tiger Stadium on the north side of the venue with four new points of entry. Any ticketed fan can take advantage of these new four entry locations and it will give them access inside the fenced perimeter which includes areas around the Maravich Center and portions of North Stadium Drive.

The four points of entry in the expanded perimeter on the north side of Tiger Stadium include:

Entrance A – located on North Stadium Drive near the Athletic Administration Building
Entrance B – located on the west side of the Maravich Center near Mike the Tiger’s habitat
Entrance C – located on North Stadium Drive near the Manship Journalism School Building
Entrance D – located on the east side of Tiger Stadium in front of Manship Journalism School Building

These new four points of entry will open three hours prior to kickoff and will give fans a variety of food options in that area.

The additional entry points around the Maravich Center on the north side of the stadium are just four of the many ways fans can get into Tiger Stadium. This year, with the new ticket gate layout, ticketed fans can enter the stadium through any gate. The only exception is those fans sitting the premium areas as their gates remain the same for 2020. Gates for the premium area of Tiger Stadium open two hours and 30 minutes prior to kickoff, while all other gates open two hours before kickoff.

LSU has expanded its ticket gate layout in 2020 to accommodate queuing with 6-feet social distancing.
