You say we need this to attract new residents. I show you data that proves it doesn't work in our largest city, yet I'm not dealing with reality?


You’re being intentionally obtuse.

It’s PART of what you need

Implode the River Center and build something new there if this is truly needed.


Ah so it’s really just an anti-LSU thing. Got it.

DS, stop engaging this troll.

Let's remember this is an LSU board. I support this arena deal because it greatly benefits LSU. I don't live in Baton Rouge so I don't much care about the collateral benefits for BR as a whole. But if offering such collateral benefits is what we have to do to get it built, then let's fcking go.

Not at all. How much traffic crosses the MRB in Baton Rouge that would then see this new arena? Where would visitors stay to see a concert at your new stadium? Umm, downtown? Why couldn't LSU use this location for it sports?

Would the proposed location be visible from the bridge?
