I would too.
The top four, whichever way you slice it has four SEC stadiums at the top of the list.

I was just looking at the years from 2001-2008 and OM and LSU had very similiar numbers. Just one omaha visit seperates them.
i dont remember exactly but it was like 02 and 03 we went 2 and q in back to back years.

Several SEC stadiums are good to great, and some have some added promise.
LSU (The Box) - It just works period. The program makes their money from the individual season ticket holder. Great facade, plus added potential. This place works for several different types of fans.
ARK (Baum) - AA level of veerryy nice. Financially, AR makes the owners of the suites do the heavy lifting.
USCe - I like the potential of where this one could go. Great tradition, and I bet they add a little something every year or three. Nice with potential.
OM - Nice atmosphere, better than advertised, but it's peaked. I can't see anything else you could add that doesn't take big money. Great atmosphere though.
MSU - Gotta mention it, because these guys started it all. Again, like the atmosphere.
Vandy - Nice job with what 'ya have.
UF - Okay, but bland for some reason
GA - Great at one time, but needs an update.
BAMA - Embarrassing, all that money and this???
The rest - Haven't seen 'em

Could easily expand the Diamond Club if not just redo them in favor of some individual suites.
Could also extend seating over the 3rd base side concessions.

We'll always be making our student section bigger and better (outfield berm).
We had about 3,000 students show up for our friday night game against florida.
We just expanded the student section, and didn't have enough room for the students this past weekend.

That's pretty impressive. I'm not sure how many students attend our games.

UNC's stadium is really nice, but I doubt it's better than any of the SEC big 4.

If we'd charge our students 2-3 bucks a game, they could make bank. Stamp their hand so they can walk in and out. My thoughts.....2 guys buy the booze, one guy pays for entrance.....everyone's happy.
I think it's 5 bucks for tourny play. No choice but to charge them.

without a doubt.
We could definitely be in the black if we charged students a nominal sum.
That's 6-7k more a game.

we dont charge ours either fwiw.

Yep, maybe have a season ticket package for like 25-30 bucks.
Our baseball program is already self-sufficient. Use the extra cash to fix up TSC.

Getting to the point here where we almost need to.
Freaking premium for decent seating right now

I figured no one did, but a couple of bucks wouldn't hurt our students and would really help our AD.
I mean we had a huge crowd on Friday night.

No kidding.
I could barely see anything Friday.
We could use the money to spruce up our other facilities.

Time to bowl in the football stadium. Is this in the plans?

The administration probably wants to see if we sellout this year. There were hints at it by Pete Boone, but It's very dependent on what happens this year, I'm sure.

Our little pre-game difficulties kinda screwed us on that too.

Place was full when we got there, though.
