Well then you missed the fact that fans at Tiger Stadium sit closer to the exits and also have more exits to choose from to begin with. Which makes it easier for fans in Tiger Stadium to get up, go to the restroom or the concessions.

And that's not just true in comparison to BDS. You can say the same thing in regards to any other stadium in the conference.

no, i didn't miss that. for one - on the list of my criteria that make the ideal game watching environment - proximity to exits and/or bathrooms isn't really near the top. even if it was, its all kind of negated by the fact that i am forced to wait through a rather idle line stretching about 30 yards to get to the bathroom.

also, i dont find the chair-back seats particularly comfortable.

also, showing me maps of louisiana and planned light rail and restaurants doesnt change my opinion of tiger stadium (good or bad) or my game viewing experience there.

dont ask the question if you arent going to accept an answer from someone who doesnt accept your position. especially on a subjective topic like this.

Try as I might, I can't make better access to exits and thus quicker access to restrooms and concessions a negative.

As I pointed out, that's being studied and will be addressed...

And Alleva said LSU is looking into improving the restrooms at Tiger Stadium — which might become necessary if beer sales are ever approved.

On what could happen to the old dorms in Tiger Stadium:

"It’s full of asbestos, so it all would have to be abated. The plumbing is shot. The electrical is shot. The ceilings are really low. It’s a really low ceiling, so aesthetically it limits what you can do. One of the things that we have the architect looking at now, and goes back to the fan experience, we have them looking into the possibility of creating more restroom space out of that dorm space, renovated space for particularly women’s restrooms. Women are really particular about that. So it we could create more restroom space, that would be a real advantage for us.

They're better than bleacher seats. Most fans in other stadiums don't have that option.

They will enhance the experience of the vast majority of fans here. Can't really argue that.

Thing is, there's subjective and there's facts. The facts are that Tiger Stadium has more premium seats of all types than every stadium except Arkansas' and the most chair back seats of any stadium in the league. That's not up for discussion.

Have a great day!
