I don't know if anyone knows what the final capacity will be.


I had read it will shrink to around 10K.

TIFWIW.

Thanks for the clarification.

Edit: I know LSU could have sold 15,000 tickets for that meet if that many had been available.

I'm impressed with LSU's new found love for gymnastics. It really is a pretty awesome event. We've been made fun of for years for following it. I'm glad some other teams in the SEC are getting on board




Yeah, with Jay Clark recruiting and being the head coach in waiting, I expect LSU to be a title contender from here on out.

LSU has marketed really well to families with kids for the sport, so I expect solid attendance numbers from here on out too

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's more than Coleman now holds for a gymnastic meet in it's current configuration, no?


Not unless something has changed in the last year that I'm not aware of.

We've sold out the Coliseum (15,075) 10 times since 2005. Our highest average attendance was 13,786 in 2010. Topped 13,000 again in 2013.

Not to mention, with the "Death Star" of gymnastic practice facilities being constructed as we speak...



It features, among other things, a roof top lounge area with BBQ and big screen TV:

How about we start by going through the SEC undefeated? Which we did this year.

Our GOAT coach retired. Decline was inevitable.
