Man, that's not even close to ready. What is the estimated completion date? Why did they wait so long after the season to start?
not sure if serious.

Wow that South end HAS to be ahead of schedule. It looks like its shooting up.

Even though it seems like small stuff, the entire area around the stadium looks light years better than it was just 3 years ago. The new windows and paint job especially and with the new entrances instead of chain link fences



I agree.

They have done a great job.

Can't wait for the inside to be renovated into a hotel and giftshops in 10+ years

But seriously, that's what's coming next. They've got to have interior renovations in mind after the SEZ is complete. They'll probably remodel the rest of Tiger Stadium after whatever the interior will look like in that new SEZ addition.

Waiting for Raisin' Canes to be offered throughout the stadium. If Turner Field can offer a Waffle House, we should be able to sell some chicken fingers.

Being able to stay inside of Tiger Stadium after a game would be awesome. Accommodations ad shops have to be the next step

Only adding to the uniqueness of TS. How many stadiums in the world have hotel rooms or suites for overnight stays?

Im ready for them to improve the inside concourses. Bathrooms are shite, concession stands are shite. South endzone has the best food options, and all im stuck with is a footlong sausage poboy (which is the shite btw) and nasty arse nachos that are always cold.

The TS concourses need an overhaul.

It'll be interesting to see how the configuration of the student gates work out.

I can see huge bottlenecks and only 1/2 the students are inside by kickoff while the rest are lined up outside the street.

I like the looks of the new student gate area. Just wondering how it will be able to accomodate a large crowd of students at once with bag checks, ID checks, etc...

Unless there are 2 more gates on the opposite side.

The NEZ area looks fantastic. You don't realize how shitty that side of the stadium looked a few years ago until you compare it to what we have now.
