As many of you know, Nebraska women's volleyball had a game that drew 90K in Memorial Stadium. Recenlty found out Iowa, the team LSU beat in the championship game, is doing a similar promotion at Kinnick Stadium. Over 47,000 tickets have already been sold. I can't imgaine that Kim Mulkey's program couldn't pull this off. WBB is very close to 10K season tickets sold already. Having just won the NCCA championship, LSU should strike while the iron is hot, just as Iowa is doing. What y'all think?

Check out The Promotion for the Game! Nice!

I mean we are talking about Nebraska and Iowa. Not much sports are going on there. Between LSU football, Saints, Pelicans, when would you do this? Plus, weather plays a huge part down here.

I think it would be a cool idea, but man it seems risky weather-wise. How do you build in for a potential rain delay or rain out?

Not feasible due to the humidity

Both Nebraska and Iowa have FieldTurf, so putting a court down over the field doesn't kill their playing surface.

Since Tiger Stadium has the real deal (as Les could attest), they'd have to wait until the season to be over to lay down a court. Now you're looking at holding the game in December. Outdoors.

... NOPE!!!
