Everybody knows that we are getting a new Alex Box Stadium for baseball this year. What most may not know is that not everything in the new Box will be new. I am a 15 year season ticket holder in the Home Run Bleachers behind the outfield wall. I don't know whether it is to save time, money, or both, but the Home Run Bleachers in the new stadium will be the same bleachers brought over from the old stadium. That's right, we have to sit in old bleachers at a brand new stadium! What makes it worse is that we still have to pay TAF a "Tradition Fund" to have the right to sit in these old bleachers. To add even more insult to injury, sections 101, 102, 201, 202, 122, 123, 222, and 223 down the first and third baselines will be getting brand new bench-back bleachers and will not have to pay a "Tradition Fund." Not only is this unfair to some really great LSU baseball fans, it is just plain wrong. I know that college baseball is becoming more business oriented every day, but business is not just about how much money you can make, it is also about how you treat your customers.

I love LSU baseball with a passion and am not angry, just disappointed. I will be there on opening night cheering as much as I can for Coach Mainieri and the 2009 LSU Baseball Tigers!
