re: Why was the Eye at midfield offset in 2000?

When was the eye first introduced?

82 or 83.

The Eye was off-centered for a few years because the entire field was painted un-balanced, with more space in the back of the South EZ.

So, these idiots in the LSUAD decided to paint the Eye in between the 45 and 50 to make up for that.

Hardly anybody noticed the uneven space in the EZ's, but everybody noticed (Including the millions watching on TV) that the mid-field logo was not centered on the 50 yard line. (This made the LSUAD look like Flying Monkeys)
