Thats the best picture i have seen at the concession stands. The one in 412 has more white static lines on it than picture.

The time to start spending was about 10 years ago.

Maybe we can close the upper deck for non conference games? Paint fake people in em.

I teach at a college that still has VHS tapes for some of the lessons for "self-paced classes.

I would be willing to guess that most folks who don't think they don't need to be changed
1. Don't pay the exorbitant, ever increasing ticket prices.
2. Don't go to the games at all.
3. Don't pay the annual ticket psl(seat donation) that is required to buy tickets.

I get to bitch all I want when I spend the thousands of dollars each week to bring my family to a game!!! Look at the other SEC stadiums. When they can afford more modern amenities like LCD monitors in Starkville than BR there is a problem. It is about image and pride in the university. Believe it or not, going to the restroom and concessions is part of going to a game. I don't think it is too much to ask for viewable monitors when we get hammered each year for crappy out of conference home schedules and poor performing teams.

Did you go there to watch tv or a football game? Who the hell cares about f'ing TV monitors, bitch about more important things, like the lousy state of the football program.


It's a small thing that goes a long way towards making people feel they're at a first-class sporting event.

To be fair, up until about 9-10 years ago, the stadium in Starkeville was a glorified high school stadium. Davis Wade is essentially, today, a whole new stadium

Ok? Google all the changes that have been made to Tiger Stadium in the past 10 years. It may not be essentially a whole new stadium, but it's at least 50%.

Those TV's are really embarrassing. I have never left a game...even Troy.

Do you really want to sit in traffic, battle for a parking spot, walk a couple miles, sweat your balls off, wait in line to enter the stadium, and then watch the game on a monitor under the stands?

I'm sure LSU would love to have my money at the concession stands. When I do go down there for me or my kids, is it too much to ask that if it is during the game, there is a viable way to keep up with the game while I wait in line for 20 minutes so the kid at the counter figures out how to charge the guy in front of me for 2 cokes and some nachos?

Isolated it's not a big deal at all, but it's just one of a hundred little things that the AD obviously doesn't care about, and all the little things add up to a big overall feeling of apathy towards the fans.

It's not just that section. They are all over the stadium, particularly in the south endzone concourses.

It is so embarrassing. Just remove them. I'd rather have no TVs at all than ones from the 1990s. People can follow the games on their phones or whatever.
