$2 Million Dollar Job: LSU To Replace The Field Drainage At Tiger Stadium

Why do we need new drainage? I thought it never rains in Death Valley?

That should be a good enough investment to keep us from going turf for a while.... I hate turf football fields. I take pride in our grass field with all those plush blades, perfectly cut, leaving fresh grass stains on the uni's... some may say it is even good enough to eat. Truth be told, I would love 5 mins to roll around naked on that field when it is at its best.

So how many times do you have to redo drainage at Stadium to get it right. This is like 3rd or 4th time in 20 years.

Don’t worry Joe. This won’t be your problem next summer.

Save the money and buy out the “coach”.

They can havr monster truck racers in the dome one night and play football at noon the next day I’m sure they can have it ready in time with the right contractors.

Hey his way we will be able to properly drain the swamp!!!

I say they artificial turf from the sidelines to the fence all arround the field and leave the natural grass for the playing surface only. This would allow them to quit using that ugly arse tarp in the player areas. This would be similar to the baseball field. Also, I would like to see the artificial turf on the baseball field extended onto the warning track in the outfield.

I would rather use the 2M to buyout our HC after we finish 6-6

The good contractor will turn him down and he'll hire Mitch Landrieu to be in charge of drainage.

To bad joe won’t be here to see it complete.

"DRAAAAAAINAGE!! Drainage, Eli, you boy. Drained dry. I'm so sorry. Here, if you have a milkshake, and I have a milkshake, and I have a straw. There it is, that's a straw, you see? Watch it. Now, my straw reaches acroooooooss the room and starts to drink your milkshake. I... drink... your... milkshake! [sucking sound]"

When does the NEZ Upper Deck Project begin?

This seems like a huge waste of money.

Wasn't something else done a few years ago?? Now tearing it up again.....

preparing for decades of tears to come flooding upon the field

“Cost me” fuch that guy.

his last hoorah?

$100 says LSU will have to open the season at Memorial Stadium down the interstate or play home games in Shreveport.

Coming out of your pocket, huh Joe?
