re: Where LSU athletic facilities rank in the SEC...

Im trying hard to figure out what people found so disagreeable about my statement. I can only guess that people think that Tiger stadium is a very high quality stadium.
Id like to preface the following opinions with 2 statements:
1)I lack no affinity for TS. Its one of my favorite places.
2)Ive attended 70+ consecutive games (as have many here, not a brag) and worked as an undergrad in a job that gave me free roam of the entire stadium and would say that ive been to every square foot of that place.
That being said, the stadium is 90 years old and in some place indistinguishable from fricking Alcatraz. Its not a 5-star quality stadium. Its a landmark and a hell of a venue. But its not #1 quality wise.
And the only reason i even brought that up was to segue into the fact that Alex Box is both the best in atmosphere and quality.

Because you act like Tiger Stadium is alone in being old. It isn't. It's actually very well maintained compared to many of it's brethren. And it is almost invariably better designed than the vast majority of stadiums not only in the SEC, but around the country.
No exaggerated sideline curves to the stands or upper decks. Plenty of exits, plenty of restrooms and concessions. The new addition is even better in this regard.
If you traveled to a lot of the other stadiums, you'd know this.
