What if you could get ahold some old blueline prints? You haven't lived till you stood next the blueline copier. The ammonia smell probably is a life shortening environment.

The LSU library might have the originals.

Tiger Stadium was built in phases. So there isn’t a set of prints of the whole stadium.

Originally it was just the east and west lower sideline stands.
Then the north end zone was constructed giving a horseshoe look.
The South stands were added to form the lower bowl.
An upper deck on the west with a small club area was added.
After that the east upper and suites were built.
Following that the original west upper was demolished and replaced by the current west upper with club levels and a new press box.
Finally the south upper with club seating was added.

Besides the football area back of house areas were added and subtracted. You had dorms, football offices, athletic dept. offices, weight rooms, training rooms, an auditorium, meeting rooms, and other spaces added and subtracted over the years.

There aren’t drawings of the whole thing.

I did a hell of a lot of this early on in my career…the MSDS doesn’t say so, but I am sure I}breathing that crap isn’t good for you. I used to feel like I had a hangover on the way home from work from breathing that shite some days.
