1) First Base Club - The expansion of first base stands, premium seating, club space, concessions, and improvements to the south entrance to Plainsman Park and the future Player Performance Terrace.
2) Right Field Terrace - The expansion of first base stands over the Josh Donaldson Hitting Lab to include premium seating and an enhanced concession experience.
3) Green Monster Terrace - The addition of a unique viewing area over the Green Monster, including improved concessions and restrooms to support patrons in left field.
It’s a pretty nice, unique park although on the small side which is perfect for a school and fan base their size. This is going to make it an even better place to catch a game.

How can you top this?

But our fence looks like the old box

We need to tear the entire thing down, except for the one wall panel behind the plate with the Tony Chachere's ad and start over.

I take it none of you have ever even been in our locker rooms and facilities? Baseball facilities you don't see...

Players don't care. None of that has anything to do with success on the field.

Aren’t Box renovations on the agenda? Seems like I heard that somewhere.
I have a feeling Woodward will get basketball lined out first but I can’t see Alex Box being neglected for much longer.

You guys missed out on the good ole day’s when folks packed a rodeo arena to see Pistol Pete play. You could dyilk smell the sweet aroma of the cattle and horses as Pete burned thdd Ed nets at John M Parker on a regular basis.
Then we had the days when Eddy Furness, Brandon Larsen and the gorilla gang launched homer after homer at a packed Alex Box that was over a half century old. The smoke from under the third base stands could blur your vision from down the third base line as you leaned up to watch the next home run,
Tiger Stadium is not any better, Parts of the old bowl are about 90 years old. Billy Cannon played in the old bowl over 60 years ago. Amenities??? No, excitement for sure. It was a religious experience to watch elite SEC football on a Saturday night.
You guys who believe if raked arm chair seats, a roof over your head, huge concession stands to have great players, great teams and great fan experiences forget what we once had and how we went and watched no matter what.
Fans are spoiled.

I have been to Auburn's baseball stadium, although a game was not going on. It is nice but small. I don't think they will be passing us up.

Only LSU fans could complain about playing baseball in the most reverent place in college baseball... The Box.

Well LSU has spent hundreds of millions of dollars upgrading our Football Coaching Staff, Strength and Conditioning Staff, our Baseball Coaching Staff, hiring a chef for better nutrition, upgrading our Women’s Basketball Coaching Staff, and hiring a new Men’s Basketball Staff. However, Chicken Little shows up and whines about bleachers yet again.
Oh, and Auburn has the great TJ Finley and Koy Moore to go along with their beloved Head Coach Brian Harsin.
But LSU has bleachers. Lol.

And yet LSU is still hauling in #1 recruiting classes
Gotta hate it

Most places need amenities to draw fans in.
When LSU is rolling - and we have not for a few seasons - you could have 10k wooden grandstand seats and they would be packed.
Any money we have for projects needs to be invested in player facilities for baseball and basketball.
Zephyr Field had a berm, a pool, hot tubs, and a party deck. How did that work out?

The one thing Alex Box is missing....MORE ADS!

Give it time
LSU has a minor league quality park
They have time to make renovations and improvements
The sky is not falling

the problem is money. at a$m woody would ask for 1 mm and they’d provide 5 mm. he could do any upgrades he wanted. Here, not so much. Too political
