when this happens, do you think the fans may be able to purchase the old seats from the stadium ?

you mean the ones that are left, considering morons have been breaking in and taking stuff at will, makes me sick

but it sounds like a good idea, kind of like what they did with yankee stadium

I drove by there yesterday. No way will they have it torn down in a month.











Seriously, I'm sure TAF will have some sort of auction. You know they'll squeeze out every penny they can get.

The plan was to wait to be sure the new stadium would be ready to play in before tearing it down.

at the last game, skip announced don't steal anything... he said that season ticket holders would have the option to buy their seats. I'm sure they will auction/sell anything they can

but they still did, especially in left field, people ripped down things like the section L5 sign and the don't stand at the fence sign

It'd be nice to have a piece of the old box

could do it for free if you're not afraid of getting caught, fence is missing by the third base diamond grill, beware though, they may politely ask you to leave (or have you arrested, but I don't think anyone would do that if you're just looking around)

After the last game I was scooping up some dirt from the pitchers mound and was told to stop because LSU has plans for the things at the box, including dirt. Seems skip had some plans to sell everything, including the dirt... not sure how that will play out

I would say save money and transfer it all to the new one, but that would be stupid, it already has a field, to be honest, I don't know how they did it, it's a company called Munie I believe, and they put sod for the entire field, I lay 5 ft of sod and I'm dieing

I heard that they were going to put some plates where the bases/mound were in the parking lot, like a memorial, anyone else heard that?

It would be nice to have one of those nice, mint condition gold seats that were never sat in.
