WiFi?

You can’t get a cell data connection? Too many people?

Clean bathrooms are important to the image and brand of LSU

People leaving early is unusual considering the cost to attend . LSU can’t continue to ignore this problem

LSU needs to invest in Restaurants and Hotels near the campus and stadium.

I hate bringing up competition but I have a daughter at Alabama

We go to games and it’s a good experience

Organized clean and no one leaves early. The light show is pretty impressive how the do it with the cheerleaders

Guess what they have?

Restaurants, clubs, bars and hotels walking distance to Bryant Denny. The food at the local restaurants is very good

Golf carts are used all day long on game day to shuttle people

The tent area near the tower is well known and organized

LSUs walk of champions is way better, band is better. Mascot is #1

But there is work to do to keep the brand at a high level

Fan experience is top priority for AD imho

With out fans spending money the financial burden follows

I actually feel nostalgia for the days of having to wait to hear about other game scores over the PA, especially toward the end of the season with lots riding on the line.

Get off my lawn!

Yes. I went to the Bama game and the Oklahoma game. I was not able to connect my phone to the light show either time due to no signal in stadium.

The LED light shows are such a waste of money. So dumb.

They greatest upgrade that could happen to Tiger Stadium is to get rid of the "I'm from Louisiana" song crap.

Sound system is still trash. I still don’t understand how we can’t figure it out like other schools. In stadium game day atmosphere is still average. We’re still way behind the likes of A&M, Tennessee, South Carolina, Bama, Auburn, and Georgia.

Need better Wifi and Cell Service! A&M is full 5 bars of both all over the stadium. Buddy of mine was actually the Supervisor of the Crew for a Louisiana Based Company that redid everything at Kyle Field.

new sound system


Speaking of sound system, what the hell was up with it the last two games? Did they already break? The speakers where no where near as loud the last 2 games as the rest of the season.

LOL.

NIL means that the players can be employed.

If you’ve been to a game, you’ll notice that they installed light switches somewhere and flip them on and off from time to time.

Open wifi is a huge security risk. For both sides of the service. LSU doesn't want to get into that I'm sure and you as an end user should not want open public wifi either. It's ok to not check X or Facebook during the game.

Only upgrade I'd like to see is single chair back stadium seating throughout the stadium.

I do my eating at tailgate, so I don’t give a frick about concessions.

I can piss in a trough, don’t care.

I don’t need wider seats with a back other than a typical seat back.

The video boards are big enough and sound system is fine.

I didn’t need some LED light show, but I guess we have it now.

Fix the wifi and don’t worry about anything else.


I am with you on every point!!!

My daughter lived in Bham for several yrs and I attended BDS a few times and yes it is a very good stadium.

The restaurents and bars are private property... not owned by UA.

The tent area amounts to paid tailgating in a designated area. Was not impressed with it.

Fans leaving early is personal discipline because the traffic leaving is just as bad as LSU and parking is worse.

I don't need to watch a game on my phone but it would be nice to actually be able to send and receive a text message. That's not asking for too much.

I like to check ESPN to see what is happening elsewhere

As for etickets you better have them loaded and ready when you go to the gate or you will never download them. I screen shot the QR code

The three capital projects they need to do but will need help are:

Better wifi/reception in the stadium.

Fix the bathroom/concessions area in SEZ. I'm not sure what its like in other areas of stadium but for big games in DV I just stay in my seat during the game. Need to have mobile order/delivery to your seat during game option. Feeds back into #1.

Use the old dorms for something. Doesn't matter the cost. Use it for high end hotel and/or restaurant, make it part of the stadium for refreshments, open up the space for better flow before, during, or after the game.
