I love all these answers about stadiums, when the question asked about fields.


I was quite confused by the question and subsequent answers as well.

Now if it would have said Stadium or park I could understand, but as the question is currently worded it is not even close.

You should come visit one year when the Tigers play the Black Bears at Alex Box Stadium @ Skip Bertman Field.
Night games are especially beautiful.

The ads do not bother me. But Alex box has the championship plaza in front. Has the Wally pontiff hall of fame. And has lead the nation in attendance for almost 20 years. I think it's been 17 or 18 years.

An underrated one (especially when talking about field condition) is Tenn's since they have redone it. Easy to overlook because of how bad the team is.*

Was shocked how bad UGa's was. And the Gators' facility has all the charm of an industrial park.




*SCar and Ark are the two best I've seen. Have never made it to LSU.

If were talking about Stadium's I'd go with:

Baum
USCe

LSU's is probably the "nicest" stadium, but it doesn't compare in size to that of the Baum. Also, I just do not like the ads pretty much anywhere on outfield walls. It looks like a minor league thing IMO.



Just to clarify, when State is finished with a complete rebuild or renovation to Polk-Dement stadium that will be state of the art to go along with the Left Field lounge and Dudy-Noble field, well all I can say is sorry for the rest of you.

That facade MAKES that stadium. It is really second to none in that department.

However, outside of that I think it is meh, at best.

I'd say LSU, USC, & Arkansas have the nicest stadiums. I've been to Baum & The Box many of times

I noticed ads at Baum in the outfield too. I was there early last summer when my bro pitched in the state championship game.

I do hope LSU will eventually install chair backs throughout the whole stadium though. Looks good

I just said that the chairback and facade to the stadium are second to none.

The rest, playing surface, outfield fence littered by advertisements, etc. etc. is what I said is meh.

You please explain to me how what you have in those departments are any better that what everyone else has. Please. I'll wait.

If that is the case, and obviously it is based on your picture, I would again say that I think it detracts from the stadium. That's JMO. I have never liked it anywhere. I think it looks cheap. But again, JMO.

But having trailers in your outfield is amazing

We have 4-5 sponsors on the wall. Not the entire wall filled with sponsors.
