What would it take for LSU to play at Tulane's Yulman Stadium IYO?

Yulman Stadium Capacity: 30,000
This is purely hypothetical. If I'm LSU, I'd settle for no less than a $50 million guarantee and 50% of the seating.
Your thoughts?

~50,000 more seats

How about simply for the righteousness of playing the game you contractually still owe us?

You could at least TRY to be somewhat serious...

They would have to expand the stadium.
LSU will never play there any time in the near future. Possibly ever.

Attendance was only 58769 last time they played in the dome. I'm not sure if that was actual or paid.

Tulane Exec VP/University Relations & Development Yvette Jones said that if necessary, at a later date, the east sideline and north end zone "can be expanded to add anywhere from 5,000 to 10,000 total seats."
Street & Smith's Sports Business Daily/Global
All that can be added.

The agreement for the last game was that it would be in Superdome not the smaller venue.
I would be OK with LSU playing an outdoor game in New Orleans but ticket wise it will never work plus it would be a ploy for Tulane to sell their season ticket package to LSU fans and I'm not buying with a huge markup for the LSU game.

The LSU and Tulane athletic departments agreeing to play a tackle football game at that venue

There's no more reason to travel to play Tulane now than there is ULL, La Tech, etc...
Just never going to happen unless it's in the Dome.

A) Tiger Stadium would have to fall into the Earth.
B) Superdome would have to say no.
C) NRG Stadium would have to say no.
D) Tulane would have to upgrade Yulman and agree to play all their games at Tad Gormley or some equivalent.

If it ever happened, Tulane would try to sell the seats for $200 each to cash in on LSU fans attending the game.

A baseball diamond...oh, you meant football

Pretty much the kind of comments I expected. TBH, I don't think it could happen even if both schools wanted it to happen and the money was right.
Parking and traffic would be an even worse nightmare on the Tulane campus than what we've come to expect on LSU's campus. I just don't think Tulane is ready for that kind of crowd on campus.
It's an impossible scenario IMHO. Which is why I set the price where I did.

Thats actually a pretty nice looking stadium IMO.

I would send a team comprised of freshman and scout team members

On a serious note, I'm happy for Tulane. Nice looking stadium.
