around for some potential Valentine’s and start a conversation so you don’t get off and regret your decision.
4. UREC

Although you may not look your best here, the LSU UREC could be where you meet the one.
If you go to the gym as part of your daily routine, it’s possible you will develop a “gym crush.” A gym crush is the type of person you want to be with. If they’re consistent with working out, they automatically have their life together, and that is what you need for a healthy, stable relationship.
You two could exchange workout playlists, spot one another or even share pre-workout. Now that’s true love.
However, if you try to meet your next Valentine at the UREC, some rules come with it:
Do not go up to someone in the middle of their workout. That’s just annoying.
Do not check them out for too long - this can get very creepy, so be careful.
Lastly, if they have their headphones on and/ or a hoodie over their head, do not bother them. They are in the zone.
5. The Bell Tower at midnight on Valentine’s Day
This spot on campus is for all of those last minute planners out there. Finding a Valentine on Valentine’s Day can be tricky, so this one can be a hit or miss.
Every year at midnight on Valentine’s Day it’s an LSU tradition to kiss beneath the Bell Tower in order to become official University lovers. This is the one time a year that the tower chimes past 10 p.m. The origin of this tradition remains unknown, but many couples continue to celebrate every year.
Many couples look forward to this event; however, there could be some singles out there wanting to watch the romantic tradition (it’s not creepy don’t be weird). If you attend this event, take a look around. Maybe find a lonely person counting down until midnight? As you walk towards them, you could hint at a midnight kiss.
