So you think the board paid for itself and that justifies it?

Why does it need to be "justified"? It's a new amenity. I'm sorry you don't like the ads.

You must go to planet fitness with your sweet cutoff sweatshirt and wear your hoodie while you grunt and lift weights

The Box is a dump? No, this is a baseball stadium that is truly a dump...The AA Richmond Flying Squirrels stadium

Look at all of those ads...

Horrendous. I can no longer argue we have the best stadium. It was a good run but it’s over now. Hope we can win at least.

look around at the new stadiums in the SEC. it’s a dump


Look at the old ones, it isn't. We dont need to build a new stadium every 10 years.

Yes there are some spectacular new parks in the SEC, but there are some bad ones too. Vanderbilt is one of em, 3700, 20 years old and home to the national champs. Look at UF, they played in a glorified HS stadium. New one will still be an odd duck.


USC built a stadium the same year as us, and the Box is better and really similar except 5000 fans bigger.

That looks like shite. Bleachers down the line separate the Box from the great venues in the league. The most logical simple fix.

The Box is not better than South Carolina's stadium

Planet Fitness??? Jesus. Would have preferred Oscar Meyer Corndogs. God SEC rivals are going to revel in our embarrassment.

Ive seen a few games there, it is similar in fan experience. In my opinion the Box is better. How many have you seen there.

The terraces are ok, but you are not going to see the game from there. Some of the other things would never work in BTR unless we were content with 7500 people at the games.

It’s seriously not even remotely as bad as some of you are making it out to be.

I don’t care that we have that, it’s more the fact that it ruins the wonderful view of Tiger Stadium for some folks

What was wrong with the old one?

The new one looks smaller, or is that my imagination?

I was hoping that planet fitness thing was a joke.

Nope.

Baseball ekes out a few 100 thousand a season. We don’t have a 150 million dollar payroll, nor does baseball have a 150 million dollar plus revenue stream.
