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
any new upper deck would be a free standing structure like the other two, zero extra load on the existing structure.

1) LA is known for its food. DV lets them down in this aspect. Better food with more choices
2) Bathrooms need to be updated
3) Move the Band back where it was and put all the visitors in the upper deck

1. Jenny Craig diet plan for all season ticket holders or a maximum mid-section limit for entry
2. no smoking within 2 miles of Tiger stadium
3. $3000 Bikini contest for every game
but seriously, bigger south endzone jumbotron would be nice

If we're talking fantasy:
1. Replace it with Dallas Cowboys Stadium (instant larger seating capacity)
2. Move student section and band to right behind LSU bench (best seats in house)
3. Build cage for Mike behind visitors bench (just to piss off opponents and PETA types)
If we're talking realistic:
1. Upgrade sound system and South Endzone scoreboard (most obvious shortcomings)
2. Upgrade quality of concessions and service providers (local charities are nice, but unprofessional)
3. Expand entrances and exits to restrooms (people can't get in and out fast enough during high use periods)

And that's all most of us smokers want. I'm not proud of it but when watching the tigers sometimes I definitely can't hold out. So I end up taking up precious restroom real-estate to smokey cigs once or twice a game. O don't think anyone's asking to be able to smoke inside the stadium or in the seats. We just want a "sad little area" and if it happens to have a tv that's great. Anything would beat the bathrooms.

Speaker system if we are not going to close in the south endzone, add another jumbotron like in the north endzone make the visiting team fans sit in the upper deck and open those seats to lsu fans

The sound system sucks!! I know with the budget cuts there probably wont be too many renovations for a few years but this has got to be addressed!!

Refurbishing the dorms will not happen. Be happy they're putting the new windows on them. The cleanup of asbestos is very expensive and really nothing that will make money for LSU now. if they could find a way to make money off it, they would've done it by now.

(1) Better food choices and quality.
(2) Serve BEER!
(3) More 75 degree days so all the girls wear skirts and hooker boots.

enclose the South & North endzones with suites. Build open area concourses on top of them. The smokers can hang out there.
Take the ads off the wide screen and use the whole screen!!
Field turf (normal...not purple!!).....with our speed!

1. Bring back the Old Welcome to Death Valley sign.
2. Change the endzones back to the design they had during the Saban era and/or at least make the highlighter yellow color gold and the purple darker.
3. get rid of video screens under the upper decks as well as piped in music, and give students more tickets, bring back tiger rag.

1. Sound system. Literally cannot hear a thing in SEZ. (Which made the halftime show quite amusing - that was horrible and laughable).
2. Use the ENTIRE scoreboard. The only time the entire socreboard is used is when it says "DEFENSE or TOUCHDOWN" Here's an idea..how about we use the entire scoredboard when watching replays or during the plays???? What a waste and a joke.
3. Simple and cheap. As mentioned above, bring back "Welcome to Death Valley" sign.
4. (I know you said only 3, but my #3 is cheap to do). TV or at least audio in the restrooms.

No cell phones in the stadium. And fans under 60 and not in a wheelchair have to stand the entire time, only sit in timeouts (TV timeouts included) and halftime.

quote:NO. I was talking to some of the McNeese players I know about them playing in Death Valley. And they all complimented the playing surface. These guys are used to playing on Artificial Turf, and have been to ACC and Big 12 Venues and they compliment the grass, that should tell you something.
2. Artificial turf (NOT purple) - every year the grass gets so tore up and brown. and if you added on to the south that'd be even less sunlight on the grass.

SELL BEER and get a huge jumbotron!

jambalaya shouldn't be orange
They were serving orange jambalaya in the Stadium Club at the Saints game last night. I was quite disappointed. Best stadium nachos I've ever eaten, though.
