Do you think LSU will add on to the other end zone? Or is this the last expansion for Death Valley?

never changing the north. There isn't enough room to expand. It would encroach on the Tiger Habitat and PMAC

Not in our lifetimes. Upgrades on the outer facades in terms of uniformity will be made next. Interior upgrades after that. After that IDK.

Have you noticed the growing number of empty seats over the last couple years? Since some fans are having to sell their season tickets below face value, thats not going to happen anytime soon.

There have been rumors that Alleva eventually wants to put box suites only above the NEZ, (no rows of seats or upper deck), and construct the supports for the suites so as not to cover up the roman arches style of the NEZ or obstruct any of the NEZ plaza renovations and improvements.

The Box Suites themsleves would actually be in the stands and the back walls of the suites would rise above the stadium, they wouldn't really need that much support structure to the ground.

The NEZ box suites would add about 2000-4500 more to the current capacity of 102,321.

The reason this might eventually happen is that there is and will still be a demand for box suites from individuals/groups/companies/
sponsors, and the fact that box suites are big money for the Univ. and would pay for itself.
