Eh, Brian Kelly called Clemson's stadium Death Valley, Jr. Last week...saying We have the real Death Valley...as far as nickname stadiums, it doesn't bother me.

Anybody know what work was being done?

This battle with Clemson has gone too far.


Really should edit this comment out. Very tacky in light of a man dying of a medical issue while working in the stadium.

Sad to hear. Prayers up for the worker. Condolences to his friends and family.

But if I had to choose a location to depart this world, LSU Tiger Stadium might just be my number 1 choice.

I would think it's heat related.
Condolences to his family

At what point in life did people start feeling comfortable jumping online and making fun of people dying? This world is sick.

He was clearly joking about the name Death Valley, but his comment was out of line even for a message board, no matter how anonymous these forums usually are.

Sad to see all the immature comments about this guy dying. I’ve worked in the trades all my career, and have seen people die from falls and electrocution, and seen guys have serious medical issues from heat. Gotta put aside the team rivalries and send up prayers for the man’s family. He was most likely the large portion of their income and it is gone now as well as their husband/father/son/friend.

It is pretty sickening and it goes to how this younger generation operates day to day. I guarantee you that they wouldn't feel the same way if it hit close to home for them, and since it didn't, they have no care about anyone else. Literally zero empathy. Sad.
