I'm currently a student at LSU and have been tailgating near the union since I can remember.

My cousin and I joked for 3 years that the union would be ready just in time for our freshman year. Sure enough, it literally took that contractor years to finish it. We were convinced they enjoyed the tailgating spot.

Regardless, it was a horrible move by LSU. We spend upwards of 60+ million on gutting it, basically polishing a turd for an inflated price.I remember seeing Auburn's was fantastic, and they paid 1/3 less than us for a brand new union.

And what the hell Alabama, I have been to that union a couple of times pre-renovation, and that was not even necessary. it does look great though.

LSU's union is just a building. And it isn't even a cool building. It is ok, I guess. At least it has a Chick-fil-A.

I paid a BS student union fee every semester for 3 years while they were renovating it. Graduated and it still was not complete.
