are you talking about the one where tigress threatened to sue me? or the one rouge started, breaking the story about LSU police cuffing her ?

if you're basing your rating on memorable moments of course a brand new stadium isn't going to win there.

If like a normal person you base it on looks and amenities then the new box kicks the ever living crap out of that old crap hole

the new stadium is 5 years old, already has a CWS under it's belt and just had a top 3 game all time played in it. But that's not enough for some i guess.

it really is dumb as shite where they put the new box .. they're lucky someone hasn't been hit and killed on nicholson crossing for a game yet .. spend a little money and build a foot bridge over nicholson at that spot or something ..

uuuggghhh..... the old box was "across Nicholson". like a said a foot bridge is not aesthetic and could be a liability during football season.

only advantage of old box was more lax security i.e. rolling your ice chest right up to the gate and snagging beers during the game

Oh Game 1 is a top three game? I missed the poll.

Old Box -Never lost championship round

New Box- Giving high fives to a team from Long Island


Old box has tons of games like game 1 in its history... The atmosphere isnt close, either. I like the building, it's much more comfortable, but it has no mojo.

my mind is still blown from the big girl wanting more elevators. How fricking lazy can you be to think the stairs there are just too much to deal with?

Nicholson at south stadium with its crosswalk is much easier to cross than Nicholson at Burbank.

And how would it be a liability?
