is that it was designed to look new, clean, and modern. This may have worked okay, but when they had to put the sun shades over the glass windows, the facade no longer had that new, shiny, modern look. Instead, it resembles a prison with bars over the windows.

If Alleva wants to really improve the look of the West Side, he will find a way to get rid of those darn sun shades and expose those shiny windows.

Atleast then the West Side will look modern.

I'm glad it looks prison-esque, personally. For opposing teams it means they're entering hell.

I just want to know if there are any exposed PVC pipes on that side.

Didn't realize Joe had a degree in architecture. Gee, if only LSU had a college of architecture. Alleva wasn't here when it was designed so why blame it on him. Besides you guys really sounds like whiney little bitches about shite like this.

Tell me more about this modern architecture. I thought all of the modernists died off in the 60s.

Modern is out. Traditional, clean look with lots of brick and shite is in.

LSU could offer free blowjobs at the game, and you assholes would bitch that the girls weren't pretty enough.

Those of us who actually lived in the stadium will tell you the prisonesqe features were not merely cosmetic, if you care to listen to anyone over 50.

Good. We want our opponents to embrace the prison rape that will soon occur...
