LSU fans are worried the city of Syracuse will run out of booze this weekend

From sports.cbslocal.com:

“New York is about to get a dose of SEC football and some at LSU are not sure they can handle it.

This weekend the LSU Tigers will make the trek up northwest to take on Syracuse in the first of a home-and-home series. (Syracuse will play at LSU in 2017). Syracuse has a historic basketball program, but despite a lenghty list of big names; their football program clearly takes a backseat. The passion of SEC football is unrivaled in college sports and count a VP of the LSU Alumni Association as one who is skeptical if Syracuse can handle what’s about to hit them.

Jason Ramezan said LSU sold out its full away-game allotment of tickets, requested more tickets, and then sold out of those. He estimates that 7500 LSU fans will be on campus at Syracuse despite them just having about 5200 tickets. He also is worried that the Syracuse faithful won’t have enough of the “beverages” that Tigers fans love and wants them to be prepared. Here is what Ramezan said in an interview with syracuse.com after scouting the area last fall:
“I’ve gone places in the past where they’ve run out (of alcohol). They might meet their alcohol budget for the year. Tailgating at LSU is a science and it’s a religion, and in the fall, it’s almost better than the game…When we went up there we said, ‘Oh this is going to be interesting. There is not a lot of space.’ It’ll be different.””

Tell you what folks. Cleveland has a lot of problems. Pot holes, road construction, crime, poverty, our sports teams sucking and just general depression. I love this city but we’re far from perfect. However if there’s one thing I would bet all my worldly possessions on never happening in Northeast Ohio, it’s a shortage of alcohol. There’s a better chance of this area running out of air than running out of booze. Always another bottle in the back.

As for this story, it’s absurd and there’s absolutely no possible way Syracuse would run out of booze from one day of tailgating. Don’t flatter yourselves, LSU fans. Now if it was a Big Ten school visiting the Carrier Dome?

That could be a problem.

(VIDEO) Colin Cowherd Eviscerates the SEC, Says Ohio State “Would Run Through The SEC”

Do it to ’em, Colin! Do it to ’em! So basically what Colin said here is what I said last week– the SEC is overrated and dead. Usually when Colin opens his mouth I find myself plugging my ears, but not this time. After Arkansas’s loss to the 3rd best team in Ohio and Auburn needing overtime to beat vaunted Jacksonville State, it’s safe to say the SEC isn’t what it used to be.

“Your quarterback play is embarrassing.” 

100% true. Take the 4 best QBs in the Big 10 (Connor Cook, Christian Hackenberg, Cardale Jones, JT Barrett) put them on an SEC team, and they’re probably the best player in the entire conference. The conference is stuck in 2012 when Alabama and LSU were playing in the title game putting up a whopping combined 21 points. You need to score points in today’s college football, and those SEC quarterbacks ain’t putting up 35-40 points on a consistent basis.

VIDEO: Akron Longsnapper Makes An Insane 8 Story High Trick Shot Into A Moving Target

Boom! Suck it, Dude Perfect. Just another reason why being a long snapper is the best job in the world.

Very chill nonchalant celebration as well.

From what I’ve gathered in 5 seconds of Twitter research, this is part of a competition between longsnappers from Ohio U, Akron, and other teams in the MAC. #LongSnapperWars

Here are a couple more videos from Akron

Right now Akron has the slight lead but I fully expect OU to come out swinging and I for one can’t wait.

College football. Nothing like it.

Long live #MACTION and long live longsnappers.
