I've been to more games than I can count where I've stood. They've got space between the right field bleachers and the batters eye LSU can easily sell those out. I know a lot of people don't go because they'd have to stand. SEC weekend series, regionals and Supers, easily sold out. Could also add some more standing room only. LSU should get on this.




ETA: A Berm would be sweet as hell!

I'm actually surprised they don't have some kind of temp bleachers for games like this.

They need to enclose the entire stadium and make it a dome

If they played the Supers in TS I wonder how many people would show up at say $5 a pop?

If you build it, they will come. SEC weekends would have good numbers too

Yeah, that's pretty much the only reason we would need them.

I'd buy season tickets yesterday if more were offered. They would sell. Big weekends, we fill them.

Why build a berm when you could build a mountain??

Think how sweet that would be

I remember Alleva talking in an interview this season during a game, and he mentioned we have plans for suites down the left and right field lines. Anyone know when that might come to fruition? I want a berm, the stadium to be all chairback and a berm first

Remember centerfield at Rosenblatt behind the batters eye?? We need something like that for the informal fanlooking to have a good time.

Grill + concessions concourse behind the batters eye and GA seating in left and right center.... or hell, open that whole area for people to grill and drink on their own.

You know at least 15k would show up for regionals and supers!

I think they need to add it on for post season purposes too!

ETA- suites down the lines w bleachers all the way up to them would be better too.

They do need to do something. Either permanent or for weekends like this. Tried for three days to get tickets and got nothing.


Berm would be awesome with the culture and tradition of tailgating this fanbase has.

Berm is the solution (if they allow byob). Don't have to worry about having empty aluminum bleachers looking shitty for smaller games but also opens up SRO and the opportunity for fans to chill, drink, and eat. Put the students out there and open their current seats for other fans.

Have any of you ever sat on a berm for 3 hours? I did it once for the LSU-Tulane Super Regional at Zephyr in 2001. shite sucked.
