The locker room pics are of the of the NEZ home locker room. The SEZ opposing locker room was also remodeled, but no pics have been posted.

Well, that's one way to get the large Coke add off of the actual screen. People are going to be pissed about it though.

My guess is Coke probably gives LSU all the coke products at some insanely cheap rate and in return LSU gives them add space at an insanely cheap rate. I don't get the big fuss.

the big fuss will be the huge fricking coke sign lit up at night in one of the most prime spots in the stadium. it just looks horrible and too "professional sports-ish"

Agreed. And to take down the National Title years to make room for the Coke sign?

To be clear, it appears as though the national championship years will still be reflected. While it's certainly not "the best" thing that could be there. It looks very well done in that it's the historic script coke and it is backlit.

I just dont understand advertising i guess. I have never sat in a stadium and thought to my self oh wow...a coke sign...I'm thirsty now... watch my seat, i need a coke!

It usually goes "damn i need a coke for this bottle of crown!" no sign needed!

The rendering showed them putting the NC years and SEC championship years on the new SEZ. I'm assuming this isn't going to happy since it hasn't been done yet.

now boudreauxs butt paste would make sense, maybe we can get them some signage in the opposing team's locker room

Even with the Coke ad, it's still an improvement over what we had before. We added more screens and expanded the actual video space on the one we kept. I won't get worked up about it.

i usually don't get worked up about shite like this but for whatever reason this just rubs me the wrong way. maybe bc it overshadows the tiger head, especially at night when its going to be lit up. i dunno..im going make a crown n coke and calm down. damn u coca cola

Looks very professional level, but I understand the reasons why. I don't understand the big fuss though. The thing is filled with ads whether that's there or not. It's not like the TV crew is going to be focusing on the scoreboard.
