Definitely looks a little like an NFL venue now. The new video boards and banners, along with the stacked-style seating are CHOICE.

Very impressive in person. Pics online don't do it justice.

It's still hard to imagine that's a college football stadium.

That it's LSU's football stadium.

Granted this wasn't an sec opponent but how was the volume? Any noticeable change?

When I made my first entrance of the season into the stadium, it was unreal! Like walking into an NFL stadium! You're right, pictures do it no justice. I can't wait to see and hear the crowd against a tougher SEC team .

It's funny how you go for so many years and get used to a way something looks, and then all of a sudden a big change like that happens. I love it.

It definitely looks awesome in person. Almost speechless when i saw it. All i could think about was the Bama game and how awesome it is going to be.

I know this might sound ridiculous, but i really want them to do it to the North Endzone too. That would just make the stadium so intimidating to be in for an opposing team.

I sat on the west lower and the stadium never really had a reason to be loud so it's hard to say what the sound was like. I'll say that when the band played from their seats, it sounded crisper or something, not sure if it's b/c i haven't heard it in a while, but it sounded nice.

I'll give my one complaint, they talked about all these damn ribbons all over. All i got from those ribbons is that McDonalds pays a lot of money for advertising. I thought there would be game stats and scores running on them? rarely saw that.

The game stats and scores are on the boards on the corners on either side.

My only complaint was cell phone coverage. Marginal improvements at best.

They ran other scored and stats almost the entire time.

And they showed cut ins from other games on one of the screens.

THREE THUMBS UP from me.

They would have to demolish mike's cage and the PMAC to do this.

It's not happening.

The band was mic'd up through the scoreboard speakers when they played while the game wasn't going on. It was most noticeable during Tiger Rag after TDs.
