It’s hard to think of a more over-simplified, asinine post than this. Good job, half wit

They have to find a way to increase the concourse space or improve the flow. at least on the west upper, everyone is bottlenecked into a 3 foot wide spot between columns and a dippin dots stand.

Maybe we could have a larger version of Northwestern’s stadium with a canopy overhead to protect people from the weather and spacious wide open concourses for people to walk around the stadium and get concessions and bathroom breaks with ease.


a larger version of that would be a multi-billion dollar stadium.

athe only thing keeping prices even close to affordable is the fact that it’s 102k seats.

The biggest problem with the sidelines is that the remaining dorms are still there and pretty much useless. Somehow, we should be able to remove them and use that space for more and better bathrooms. Then convert the areas of the current bathrooms into more concessions. Delays at both are unacceptable if you want fans to be in the stadium instead of on their recliner.

GEAUX TIGERS!

Wrigley is a good example and I mean maybe its easier for baseball than football stadiums? Just spitballing.

Makes me think of why Chicago isnt stripping down Soldier Field and keeping the Bears there. You can get the new without destroying your tradition.

Tiger Stadium as a thing should never be replaced. But I do think at some point it will need to be gutted and significantly rebuilt, if for nothing else but for safety reasons. But really to "fix" the concourses, bathrooms, concessions, seating, etc. it's really going require a massive rebuild of the interior, as seen in other stadiums like Wrigley, Fenway, and Soldier Field. It can (and should!) still keep portions of the original building and also get that modernity.

I also would not be against reducing the seating capacity somewhat to make the seating more comfortable.

Unfortunately none of that would solve the traffic problem :(

EDIT: I do think unfortunately LSU will have to play somewhere else for a year (or two) while that happens unless they do it a lot more expensively and close parts of the stadium in the interim. I don't know where they'd go, and that would definitely suck.

Well, they pretty much fricked up Soldier Field with the renovation already. But for the NFL owners, it’s about real estate and profits. They’d rather taxpayers pony up for some massive chunk of land in the suburbs, build their own parking lots, restaurants, hotels, etc. That way some billionaire owner can nickel and dime you all the way.

Tiger Stadium will be torn down when LSU ceases to exist.
