re: LSU Basketball and PMAC Fans/Students Question

The biggest issue I have noticed about the PMAC is how far away the seats are from the court. In places like Rupp Arena, the student section feels like it's on the verge of spilling out all over the hardwood at all times. In the PMAC, even court side seats are like 10-15 feet from the in-bound line.

The whole PMAC feels vacant, spacious. It feels straight up awkward to yell in there, like you're screaming in an empty church. Even when there's 8 or 9 thousand people there, it feels empty. That is architectural more than it is cultural.

Churches are designed with acoustics in mind. If you've ever been in a badly designed church, it feels awkward to sing along with the choir. It's the same way at the PMAC. That building feels dead and empty unless it's 90% full or unless the student section is as drunk and raucous as it was for the Ice Dome game.
