Since a new PMAC is a frequent topic of discussion, here's a look at a proposed new construction of a rival to provide an idea on cost, design and capacity
For comparison
Ole Miss $96.5 million in 2016 9,500 capacity
Auburn Arena $86 million in 2010 ($103 million inflation adjusted) 9,121 capacity
quote:
Capacity: Approximately 10,136
Timeframe: TBD
Price tag: $183 million
Location: Four possible locations were presented, one was preferred.
Student seating: Approximately 2,200 student seats to surround 3/4 of the lower-level by the floor.

Not going to lie, that's very nice.

People drop 180 mill and the outside looks like a shed

$183 M/ 10,361 seats = $17,662 per seat
For a new PMAC, I’d be in for two or four in perpetuity.

The inside looks great, I don't dig the outside portion of the building but thats just me

Holy shite that student seating is amazing.

Great that they are building now so that we can make sure ours is better.

It looks like a Mega church to me
But if you've been to Bamas campus, they're trying to make it as cohesive as you can make an arena blend in I suppose
Hey how about a clay tiled roof on a basketball arena? It'll blend right in right?

Looks great. Bet their big wigs and old people are in red seats leaving students for bottom access around other side.

I’m down for one cause it would probably kill Bob Mann.

I agree, looks like a shed. Cheap looking lazy design.

I do like the actual floor seating instead of having advertising there

Funny you say that. It looks like the front of a Baptist church where I grew up.

Outside looks like a funeral home.

I don’t like the outside but I’m sure it will be nice

I’d like LSU to get a new arena and the exterior resembles the Italian Renaissance architecture around the Quad.
