Yeah they moved it to the east side of the stadium after the SEZ scoreboard was taken down last year.

I hope they stick to plan & install the 3 LED ribbon panels.

It's been awhile

Well I guess that settles that. I didn't even remember seeing those before although I'm certain I've seen this rendering.

Overseas for a few weeks. Whenever I leave the states I self-impose a "break" from TD.

Same here. Makes me wonder what else I've missed in all of these plans and renderings.

How many people total with this new expansion and how many when/if they do the north expansion down the road?

A little over 100,000. A north end zone expansion would bring us to about 110,000

That would be more than the Big House in Ann Arbor.

I would bet they're done expanding TS though.

I may be in the minority, but as of right now, I really wouldn't want them fricking with the NEZ exterior. I love the way it looks now and I consider it to be the true "main entrance" to Tiger Stadium.



ETA: Of course I realize a NEZ expansion is down the road and speculative, anyway.

I completely agree with you. I love how it looks. They did a fantastic job on it.


That's my entrance!

I'm with you. I hope they never try & expand the north side of the stadium. It's very iconic

Speaking of down the road...In just 10 years, we'll celebrate the 100th anniversary of Tiger Stadium. November 27th, 1924 (a damn shutout loss to Tulane)

I think I'd have more of a problem with this if Tulane was still a football powerhouse.

LSU - Get the Stadium looking like it Complete... Not some pieced together ball of Concrete ... The North look Great. Make the South the same Color.. Gezz

The sting of that stadium opening loss is kind of eased by the way things went for each team over the next 90 years isn't it?

I think it will look good either way
