We are the greatest fans in College baseball, but MSU has set an on campus attendance record today of nearly 16,000 fans. The drinks are in clear view and it's basically one big party in the outfield. I think we're past the point of getting LSU to build a berm, but would you be in favor of changing something in the outfield to get that kind of atmosphere other than just Super Regionals?

win in Omaha. That's how we did it to start. That's why they're doing it now. It works well.

No

LSU plays very boring baseball. That doesnt get the casual fan out to the park.

I'd love a berm but they can keep their makeshift pos wooden stands

At some point, Alex Box will be expanded. We have 27 suites atm, and we could certainly sell more if they were available.

When the new Alex Box was proposed, they showed pic of what it would look like with suites all the way down each foul line. We will see that in the next 5-6 years, take it to the bank.

And yes, I'd like to see some type of berm as well.

I wish Alleva would put together a Long-Term Facility Masterplan similar to Jeff Long at Arkansas. I'd think donations would flow at a faster pace LINK

eta: Look at their Hog Pen Club renderings for Baum Stadium about midway thru the presentation. Looks badass

Suites are nice and all but that 's not bringing in the fans or atmosphere that make even a midweek game louder and crazier. I sit in left field where it's easy to go out the gate and make a new drink from time, but it was great to set up a chair and have the ice chest right next to me at Ark last year.

Do you want Cousin Eddie and his pals to pull their campers in outside the walls and set up their lawn chairs and God knows what else?

Sorry bro but The Box was half empty today and you want them to build a berm. Until the older age group dies off so people will actually use the tickets and not just hang them in their office. Seats will continue to be empty in all sports book it.
