This might be a dumb question but what is the big glass building thing to the right?

they should make sure to include one important part of that tag: "Where opponents' dreams come to die" is perfect. recruits might get the wrong message otherwise...

Things might have changed, then. I had my TAF rep at the time tell me that some of the space would be offices.

I have heard that as well about offices, could be a combination. I do know that there are elevators over there for clubs and suites. Sept 6th will be epic

If recruits get confused about what that statement means, I hope they sign with alabama. Because you gotta be dumb as a brick not to read that the right way. IT's ON LSU's FOOTBALL STADIUM , sooooo the dreams that get crushed are not LSU's. why would that be plastered up there ? ?

Here's some more pics of that old upper deck:

Inside view...


Old seating chart...


Tiger Stadium really has come a long way!

And in regards to the old upper deck, compare it with some current upper decks at other SEC stadiums...

Jordan–Hare Stadium


Davis Wade Stadium


Look familiar?

Sat up there for my first ever game in TS back in 2000 vs Tennessee. I remember taking those escalators up to the top and seeing a huge dead rat out in the middle for everyone to see.

At the time, that was one of the longest escalators in the world. Wish LSU had kept that escalator and re-purposed it on some other building. Like the Union.

I don't think it was up there for very long.

Edit: We know for sure they changed it to this after 2003:

When did the new deck open? Probably up for a few years.
