The Box's view of the yellow tin monstrosity Ponderosa(needs some mature trees relocated to form a woodline), shiny aluminum outfield bleachers, littered ads on tacky bright spearmint color padding walls(not the proper plantation/hunter green like USCe & MLB), are eyesores.

USCe, Vandy, Old Myth, Okla, Ark, UGa, and Pepperdine..have much prettier/softer/natural/less-cluttered outfield backdrops/views over their fences.

Alex Box has too much shiny generic aluminum handrailing in the grandstand, green chairbacks mixed in amongst purple and gold chairbacks looks totally mardi gras puke, until filled with fannies..choose either P&G or all green..but not all three together!

LSU's grandstand(inner and outer) is first-rate, possibly the best in NCAA? But, USCe looks prettier down the lines, and the aforementioned group's outfields/backdrops rate far over the Box.

This. Especially when you are sitting in the grandstand between home and third an hour before sunset...the half empty right field bleachers are blinding.

Also, that Little League scoreboard under the roof that they give all those poor left field home run bleacher fans to look at....

50+ year old woman taking my order at the concessions stand tried to say she didn't charge me for 2 of the things I bought but she did. I made her recalculate it. She couldn't remember more than 2 items at a time and barely knew how to use a calculator. They should really screen a few of these people before allowing them to handle money. I wonder how many other people's order she screwed up and got away with it.

Wait do they serve beer at the box?


Only in the Champions Club and on the Suite Level, and it's not allowed out of those locations.

$8 for a chicken tender box and this is the crap you get:


Stadium food, almost all HS/college SF, is well known for costing more than it's worth.

If you go to stadium hungry, shame on you.
