During the night game entrance this upcoming season they need to turn off all the lights except for the scoreboards emitting the purple hue throughout. The place would be very eerie and give off an amazing intimidating vibe. I'm not big on changing tradition but I think it could be really cool.

The lights have to warm up dude. Can't just turn them off and on like lights at home.

ETA: Also that's not the best pic to display what you're suggesting we do...

You do realize stadium lamps need significant time to warm up. That eerie entrance would turn into a 30 minute wait just to get the lights on.

They would have time for the lights to come back on during the national anthem and some pregame stuff

LSU fans do not like things to change.

Hell they fought the civil war to keep status quo

I was wondering about that picture. Is it really just the scoreboards that light up the entire stadium that bright purple? I thought it was photoshopped or video-edited. Seems too bright to be just the scoreboards.

My initial reaction was that this would be stupid. But I just imagined the lights going out right before the team comes out and right at the moment the band finishes playing and gets in place for the entrance. Lights out and that purple glow encompassing the stadium. People would be going absolute apeshit. Unfortunately, there's only a few minutes until kickoff at that point so I don't think it would be possible.

I say we do it, pump in Enter Sandman..purple lights. Get rid of four corner salute, get rid of all that shite.

Oohhhhhh, I got it, black lights, and white skeletons imprinted on the jersey. That would be spooky.

Replace the stadium lights with LEDs and you can alter the wavelength to whatever color you want.

Sounds good. Install strobe lights that face only the visitors sections too.

I think it's a cool idea, but the night game would have to be really late in the season for it to be dark enough to have something like this not fail.

I would like to add to this new tradition that Mike, being nocturnal and all, be let out of his cage at this time and let the visitors enter first. After the first kill, then fire up the lights, Bitch Im From Louisiana (unedited version), and then Les leads the team on the field.

Would be awesome. Only i dont know how to get mike back in his cage. Maybe the song will urge him to leave.

No, this isn't the basketball team. You probably love the "piped" in music too.

pretty sure those lights take a while to warm up and turn on. Not very particle.
