I get it that you see it as "Fenway ish" but Fenway is still a dump it truly is. If you don't think so then you've never been there.
Nicer is nicer
And louder will be determined this year since no one has played in new Kyle yet

How does one have better booze? I'm pretty sure good beer and liquor are found anywhere.
Oh and Saint Arnold > Abita.
If we are talking in stadium there are more areas with access to liquor and draft beer at Kyle than Tiger (legally)

Wrong. Since we're talking about Tiger Stadium, I find Voices of the Night to be apropos.

"Look, then, into thine heart, and write!
Yes, into Life's deep stream!
All forms of sorrow and delight,
All solemn Voices of the Night,
That can soothe thee, or affright,--
Be these henceforth thy theme."

The largest center-hung video board in college basketball is coming to The Pavilion at Ole Miss!
Also coming for 2016 Football:
- New natural turf at VHS
- Three new videoboards
- New stadium lighting system
- North end zone expansion
Our facilities are finally starting to match the elite programs in the SEC. We need an overhaul of some areas of Vaught Hemingway and I would say they are pretty damn impressive.

It's strange. It looks small in that pic. But well done. LSU needs a new video board badly.

Agreed. And it looks like the PMAC will be getting one as part of an overhaul. Also getting renovated will be the Football Ops Center, the West Stadium Club, the Tiger Den East Suites common area, and hopefully the Tiger Stadium concourses...probably just the lower bowl...all will be part of a package announced by TAF later this year.
Uncertain if the Beach Volleyball stadium will be part of the deal.
Timetable will be 2017-2018, and around $80-$100 million for all.
Look for an announcement before March 2016.

It really does. Is Kyle the tallest stadium? I don't think I could sit in some of those nosebleed rows.
I did it last year and it's actually not as bad as you would think IMO. View from my seats:
The worst seats I ever had was when I had to sit at the top of Jerrys world in the 2009 Cotton Bowl.

Also from today we're building a "Letterwinner walk" which commemorates every single letterman winner in Ole Miss history. It will be built outside the NEZ along with the expansion.
Also Baseball, Softball, Soccer, & Track will all have new video boards.

Best bourbon at games seems to be found at LSU and UK. Everybody has beer, but is not always good beer.

You want a scary climb, go to the top of Clemsons Memorial Stadium. One wrong step and you won't stop tumbling

Sounds a lot like the top of Tiger Stadium

Old tennis facility to be remade, right?

Walking up the east upper deck is absolutely terrifying. West isn't as steep I think.

I ditched my seat and went to the standing room by the club. Much better view.

I think Tiger Stadium is taller. It seems taller than any stadium I've been in. Does anyone have field level to top row measurements?

Link?
Bleacher with a back-rest is not the same as chair back. Most of kyle's north and west sides are chair back. I could be wrong, but I would really like to see the numbers for this claim.

What can I say, food has great sway in attracting my attention
I really enjoy Baton Rouge all the way around as its food has drawn me like a moth to the flame.

Understandable
BR has great cuisine, but I'm more of a Tex-Mex guy
