It seems like it will be hard to remember what the stadium looked like without it. Those sight lines along the first suite level seem to go right into the existing suites, and the other end where it meets the stadium club doesn't look mismatched to me at all. Looks really nice.

I cant quite picture what area he means when he says north of the pmac and east of Carl Maddox. Does that mean the current pmac parking lot??

Based on those directions, I would think so.

From what I hear, the SRO area for low-level TAF donors will be right here. The ticket will allow you to use the microwave one time. Any further microwave use requires an increase in your annual donation.

Maybe it's just me but are they repainting the seating between the 20's or are they planning to keep it bare like that??

Additionally, TAF gained approval January from the University Board of Supervisors to assist in demolition of vacated housing properties on Nicholson Drive across from the LSU Bernie Moore Track Stadium, David said. This will create parking space for 80 RVs and 1,100 cars by the first home football game on Sept. 6.
And please LSU, construct a paved asphalt or cement parking lot instead those cheap and tacky limestone aggregate rocks that are thrown down everywhere.

Haven't they been working the same schedule since the end of football season? With all of the ice and rain we've had over the past month, how in the world did they make up time on their schedule? It doesnt really add up.

It'll be limestone for now because they are going to build the remainder of the nicholson gateway project there.

i dont remember when they went to 24 hour shifts but since then is when he's said they've made up some time. and that ice slowed them down for sure but they worked through that. no days off.

i actually just talked to him to see if he still needed my tickets for opening weekend. his was response was not anymore because he had to work.

They are replacing seats and painting the east and west sides. They did this in the endzones a couple of seasons ago.

I think it's bi-yearly. Last offseason, took out all the stands in the SEZ to fix up, this season, fixing up the east and west.
