No more chain link fence. Do something with that ugly shite!
Hedges....Tiger Stadium once had hedges. Should be viewed as an SEC tradition...UGA, Auburn, MSU, Bama...and the chain link fence can be a "tradition" we can rid ourselves from.

1. Better concessions - get coroporate restaurants for God's sakes and less nachos and Tiger dogs.

2. More bathrooms (can never have enough)

3. A systematic above ground walkway - one at each side of the stadium.

1. Put a Banquet Hall/Resturaunt with a glass wall window towards the field in as part of a South Endzone Upper expansion. BDS has this and I attended a banquet in the stadium. It was pimp.

2. Upgrade the fencing as previously mentioned

3. Finish the windows and renovating the guts of tiger stadium.

2. No more piped in music and Tiger band plays a helluva lot more.

There's only so much we can play before our faces fall off, especially before halftime when we'd like to be heard.

Also, the piped in music fills in time between our songs well.

I dunno, that's just me.

I would like to see LSU renovate the dorms.

I had a friend live in them and it is such a unique part of LSU folklore I really would like to see the tradition continued.

I used to sell programs in High school and I remember when students lived in the dorms.

2. Big screen in the South endzone

3. The old school "LSU" in the endzone's vs. the current day "LSU" in the endzones.

This. I'm not in band now, but I've got friends in it and I was in a very competitive program in high school, and there's only so much you can play like the Tiger Band does before you just can't play anymore. You can't constantly play for 2.5/3+ hours.

Amen, and amen. I used to love living in South Stadium and seeing all the craziness of tailgating. The only bad part was having to relocate our vehicles from the stadium parking lot to another area by 6:00PM on Thursday nights before a home game, but that was a minor price to pay for living in "The Rock".

Dont take them away--- use it for the game and the video. The main purpose of that screen seems to be ads. That's screen is freaking huge. Yet there are ads that take up atleast half of the screen.

I see now how they were joking...but I wasn't the only person based on another reply.

3. More of the visiting fans moved to the upper deck and the South End Zone gets reclaimed by what were once the rowdiest fans in Tiger Stadium (yep, that goes back about 20 years).


For the love of god can we please get all those damn visiting fans out of those prime seats. From what i gather we give visiting teams better seats than anybody else...whoever made that decision needs to be fired.

1) Bring in the proper technology to support all wireless devices so you everyone can access apps or websites for score updates. Also supply game stats and replays via a Tiger App for current game stats. I would pay $5 or $10 a game for this I would generate more revenue and give fans what they want.
2) Install the best HD Score Boards available, we don't need the biggest just the best for Tiger Stadium Fan Viewing.
3) Redesign the walls of the new addition on the outside of the stadium to match the original outside look of TS. The current outside design of the new additions take away from the unique history look of Tiger Stadium.

you dont want to hear it, but they will have to tear out the north and/or south EZ before any expansion would occur. it has to do with the age of the facility and the lack of trust in the current footings to support the additional load. this also ties into the lack of effort being place into renovating the dorms, in addition to the costs involved in abatement

one of my improvements would be an extensive exterior pressure washing

. Instead of a chain length fence running around the stadium, replace with a brick fence around, similar to UGA, AU, etc. Maybe even have ivy grow on the brick fence or something that would look really good like that.


Used to have hedges planted along the fence, but they were removed during the Brodhead years.

I remember the banners the student would hang from the windows, not to mention music blaring from various dorms. It was great!
