I'm going through the survey they sent out around 1:30, and was interested by this part:

quote:

Which of these improvements is something you'd like to see in the future at Alex Box Stadium?

-Extension of Grandstand Cover
-Creation of a Skyline Club type area that serves alcohol
-Backstop Net Extensions
-Rentable Seat Cushions


May mean nothing, but seemed interesting to me.

Alex Box has fallen behind in recent years. Would love to see bleacher seats removed and skyline club added

Interesting as in they have no ambition to compete with State’s new stadium in the near future? Rentable seat cushions.

Is this really an improvement?


As others have stated, remove all bleachers and replace with chairback seats.

I want a new fricking Intimidator.

On the existing board, I want Pitch counts under the Pitcher's profile.

I want a new smaller but WIDER Board over 1st Base Line Suites that shows interesting shite like:
-both teams' lineup and stats for the day.
-additional current batter info/player info.
-And scores around the NCAA.
-Birthday Messages and random fan-experience shite.

Large Shade over the Playgrounds area would server triple purpose of shielding kids from long foul balls, brutal late season sun, as well as offer shelter during rain.

This is incredible. How tone deaf can LSU admin be? Get rid of the bleachers in right field, make a student section out there, and bring the LSU atmosphere back.

The food is what I'd expect going to a Division II stadium.

I just got home and saw it in my email. I sent mine in and then came here to post about it, finding so many wonderful and sensible ideas here from the fans. After rating them negatively in many parts of the survey, I wrote this in the one comment box provided at the very end of the survey--

"Last question should have offered the choice to get rid of the old Alex Box Stadium bleachers and replace them with more comfortable/modern seating as well as moving to all chair back seating like that of the Grandstand.
Replacing those old bleachers should be the top priority! Until you do that, Alex Box Stadium will only be the fourth best stadium in the SEC--and it is falling fast as other schools (MSU) are making major improvements.

This is the most poorly designed survey I have ever participated in. There were no specific directions associated with your ratings scales or ranking scales. There was also no way for us to indicate that we do not care at all for one or more of the options you presented, since you are forcing us to rank each one of YOUR choices. You also failed to provide comment boxes in each part of the survey, choosing instead to only put this one comment box at the very end. This is all a farce because you clearly are NOT REALLY interested in what the paying season ticket holders have to say about improving the fan experience for us or you would have allowed for more open-ended responses. Also the yes/no/no preference choices for the parking permit options question do not even make sense. I cannot believe that the Athletic Department actually paid someone to create this poorly constructed survey! Actually, I can believe it because you are not really seeking fan input, ideas, or preferences. You are seeking data that you can manipulate to fit the agenda you have already set in place."

After reading the information on SEC stadiums and seeing the photos here, it seems we are way worse than fourth in the conference! I agree that we all need to air our criticisms in this forum and anywhere else that will bring attention to how far The Box has fallen.

#1 and #3 but in addition, pave the parking lot, 4 lane the damn road, get some better way to get fans across Nicholson, and get rid of the damn aluminum bleachers for God’s sake. Oh, how about getting the bullpens off the damn field, it’s not high school!

If this doesn’t tell you everything you need to know about the thought processes of those in charge @ LSU, I don’t know what will. Nothing says classy like making money off your fan base through a bunch of rented boat cushions.
