Every devoted Tiger fan knows that home game festivities kick off on Friday. This year, the LSU Alumni Association is bringing back Football Fridays at The Cook, an exclusive pregame luncheon series on three select Fridays throughout the 2026 football season.

Alumni, fans and supporters are invited to the Lod Cook Alumni Center, located at 3838 W. Lakeshore Dr., for an afternoon celebrating Tiger legends, enjoying food and participating in insider conversations with local on-air personalities from Guaranty Media.

“Football Fridays has become one of our signature traditions during football season,” says Joe Carvalhido, president and CEO of the LSU Alumni Association. “Whether you’re reconnecting with friends, entertaining clients or hearing firsthand stories from LSU football greats, it’s an unforgettable way to celebrate our LSU pride.”

Fridays at the Cook will kick off on September 4 ahead of the LSU and Clemson match. Mark your calendar for September 25 for the LSU and Texas A&M game, and November 13 for LSU versus Texas. Doors open at 11 a.m., with programming slated from 11:45 am until 1 p.m.

Several ticket options are available, including general admission, reserved tables and VIP packages.
