The music has actually improved at the new Box. Not as much of the old-timey shite. Sometimes I think they have some volume-control issues: you either can't hear the music or get blown out of your seat. You can also hear the PA out in the bleachers now.

If they were to build a berm in right field, would you be able to bring your own ice chest?

few people told me they were getting patted down coming into the game and security was tighter than it ever was at the old park, anyone else find that to be true? and how is the feel of the new park? is it too nice? did it lose the alex box aura?


I went Saturday and we went in at the main entrance and didn't find security any tighter. The new ballpark is very nice and alot more fan friendly seats. The concourse is just amazing - lots of room. Many people just stand behind homeplate on the concourse and watch.

The project manager told me that a berm, a pool, and a concession stand will be built behind the right field fence following this season. And I have been told this by other higher ups at LSU that I know.

I think the place needs to be torn down and turned into a parking lot for our damn strong football team and their practice facility. We should immediately move back into the old Box and call it a day.

Well in the grandstands on the first row, not taking into account the couple of rows behind the dugouts, but if you sit in seat 1 or 2, there is a huge, pointless bar that completely blocks your veiw of the field. You either have to sit up to see above it or slouch to see below it. Has anyone else noticed this?

I'd build a jumbotron scorboard on top of the concourse

I'd get Wolfgang Puck to run the concessions

I'd let Chris Guillot sit up on a built-in cloud, hovering above the field

I'd make a rule that the K lady cannot put the 3rd K up unless she puts the fourth with it

I'd serve Tang in the bathrooms

I'd make children sit in their own section

I'd make the press box three stories

Olmec, I know who you are for realz.

There's only one person I know that would voluntarily be known as Olmec in two circles, and it has to be you.
