LSU has agreed to stop mandatory pat-downs at the student section entrance to Tiger Stadium this football season, according to an LSU student media report.

In story posted Wednesday, LSUnow.com reports that the LSU Student Government worked with LSU's Office of the President to end to practice of checking each student for alcohol and other forbidden items.

SG President Jason Badeaux told LSUnow.com the mandatory pat-downs were only required at the student section entrance, causing extreme delays for students trying to get into the game.

“Obviously, there are still alcohol rules in place, and we still encourage students to follow those rules,” Badeaux said. “We don’t want the pat-downs to have to come back … but we did want to do this for the students to try and speed up the process and make it easier and more enjoyable for students to get into the stadium.”
