Front Side of Tiger Stadium Makeover

I think we should focus on rebuilding the team first

I thought bowling it in is not possible.

There is apparently a plan in place to re-name Tiger Stadium, to Les Miles Stadium. The field will be called Tiger Field at Les Miles Stadium. Les is, after all, bigger than the program.

Enclose the stadium with the "White Hat" on top.

I would think TAF and the university have more pressing concerns than a facade, especially when the one there is less than ten years old.

I doubt it, but I wish they would do it. Tiger Stadium's exterior is the ugliest I've ever seen. It looks like it was designed by Picasso...but like a no-talent Picasso.

Beat me to it.

The South End Zone expansion turned out well. Only issue is the FEMA trailers on the roof. If they at least somewhat matched the facade to the new South end zone it would improve drastically.

The North End Zone probably won't be extended. Supposedly all of the utilities are buried there; also boilers, furnaces, HVAC etc (that's where you see the metal grating on the sidewalk on the north side). The act of moving everything buried there will be a significant portion of the project if they do decide to do it.

Outside is fine for now. Need to redo the inside before anything else. It's embarassing

It's a football stadium used 8 times per year. All that matters is its economic value to LSU. Who cares what it looks like from the outside? Does the exterior appearance improve the economic value of the stadium? Any future improvements should be focused on economics, not aesthetics.

I haven't really paid it much attention recently, but is THE WHITE PIPE still there?

Also, let us not talk about bowling in the upper level. While they can sell the tickets they can't fill the stadium, as it is. Traffic only gets worse and adding more seats, on the rare occasion that they would all be filled, would be an even bigger nightmare.
