I realize that the East & West Uppers aren't perfectly aligned even after the East being redone. But, think copying Bama's two kitty-cornered tvs a mistake, and I'm an oversized tv junkie. Just think the lore of Tigerstadium is better served providing more space for fans & noise, with a tv up high stacked on top..

Also, don't like that West Virginia'ed smaller height endzone upper, think it should wrap-around and be of same size of sideline uppers(ala Tenn's tall one open-end horseshoe setup)..

Tigerstadium space should be for noisemakers. Let Bama have the sportsbar-in-stadium mutliple tvs in one endzone, pom-poms, and recycled microphoned sound for that matter..

LSU is about the fans, put as many in it as you can with this addition. Not just add a 5K more(not even getting over 100K), as just to add some suites(even if they are the engine that funds things)..

I'd rather one Texas-sized bigscreen in the North endzone, rather than two that cost fans seats in the South. Bama did their endzone uppers right(PSU & ATM & VT style), it's as accommodating(or more), than their older sidelines.

Yeah but who's going to sit in those empty seats? Seriously? Why add non-revenue seats just for the sake of it when it's doubtful anyone will sit up there outside of one game a year? I would rather a filled TS than one with 110,000 seats, 12,000 of which are vacant each game.

Texas barely even has seating in that endzone so it's not a comparable proposition to TS. And having screens that big, like Jerry World, just makes you watch the screen all game.

Which is exactly what my design does. I didn't go with a full -blown horse shoe design because the demand is and will never be there for a 110,000 seat stadium. But i think a ~104 to 105k seat stadium is more reasonable
