Yep, some good ole boys made mucho denero off the contracts to build the new Box.

LSU easily could have and should have renovated the Old Box; added extensions to the existing Grand Stand all the way down both lines with chair backs and add more permanent chair back seats in the outfield.

No, lets tear down the historical Alex Box stadium and replace it with a sanitized set of tinker toy trailers, (That look like the public eyesores they plopped down on the top of the new south endzone addition) just so somebody's buddy can make a buck.

Let's also cover every square inch of the interior of the stadium with tacky advertising to duplicate the Tiger across the street.
