Bama has the fan base. We cant even fill up 92K. Only 60K showed up for Troy.


I wish you weren't an LSU fan.

LSU already has perhaps the best football facilities in the nation. Thanks Nicky...

Renovations, on the other hand, might be a little more practical at this stage. Our stadium is far from perfect as it is.


I agree here. Rather than expand use any additional monies to clean up the inside of Tiger Stadium. There's plenty of restroom, concourse, inside cleanup work that needs to be done before adding to the south endzone.

I think we can fill it. Of course, it will be with visiting fans. I sit in the "rich people" section on the East sideline and almost without fail for big SEC games we are surrounded by Bama, Florida, UGA fans. This year there were probably 20-30 Ole Miss fans and more Alabama fans than that in my section alone. So, there are people who will order the tickets and then sell them to visiting fans who want a chance to come to a game in Tiger Stadium.

It's funny because 5 years ago people would kill to get our season tickets to non conference games, now even the people that can't afford them turn their nose up at shitty games.

no amount of bryant-denny expansion will ever make the bama gameday experience even a fraction as cool as lsu's gameday experience.

No big deal. We don't need to add to the stadium just because Bama is doing it. We don't need any more seats. T.S. is fine like it is. We need to not be so weak and paranoid that we need to have a bigger stadium to prove our worth.
