re: Is there a roadblock to selling naming rights for stadiums at LSU?

The Road Block is ... good taste?
Though, if we ever do go the paid naming route, we need to start with the baseball stadium and get all the money we can from Microsoft.

Taste and good common sense are the roadblocks.

Bleeding the people?
Tell me who/how are "people" forced to buy tickets?
Some of you are truly demented.

It wouldn't generate the revenue you think it would.
Kentucky gets a whopping 1.85M/year from Kroger. 12 year deal until 2029

I would support a congressional act stating that they can’t sell the naming rights.

Like others have noted, the time is coming. With assistants hired at $1.5M each the coaching salaries annually are well above $20M for football alone.
This can’t continue with revenue increases beyond the SEC ESPN football contract.
Our fan base is poor; really the Animal House of the SEC as we tend to go through life fat, drunk, and stupid. We spend our hard earned salaries at the casino or play daily lotteries.
While we like the vanity of not being bombarded with billboards at our sports venues, we need to lead on these opportunities if we want championships and hiring top level coaches.
Tiger Stadium name is sacred, but I’d rather win championships and sell the name rights than be a purist and a mediocre program with a pristine billboard free environment. Selling the name will eventually happen.

Watching the basketball game last night, the camera angle on the right side of the court had the basket directly in front of the brightly lit red Canes advertising board at court level. You could not tell if the ball went thru the hoop half the time.
Its the same thing in person in Tiger Stadium with the advertising ring at the top of the lower level. You give marketing an inch, and they will put up a mile of annoying, 1 million candlelight power, LED advertising. For that reason, I am out.

That’s a terrible idea. It is Tigers Stadium and should only be called Tiger Stadium. Even if they were dumb enough to do that I don’t think that money could be used for NILl

I for one support pimping everything out for money, who cares.
So you would be for the soccer model of just having “Verizon” or “Amazon” across the front of the jerseys instead of Tigers? Maybe they can replace the Tiger logo on the helmet with a McDonalds logo. Heck they could go all out like Leipzig and the New York Red Bulls and just do away with LSU Tigers altogether. We could be fans of the Raisin Canes Fightin Chicken Fingers. Could start to recruit only players under 6’ tall.

"Tiger Stadium" is a historic stadium with over 100 years of history. It is part of the LSU brand and is worth far more than any of you short minded idiots think.
The name gets mentioned like 50 times during a home game broadcast and likely another 50 times during other broadcasts in a weekend. Think about how much a product placement would have to pay for that.
