So, most all of the major college football venues have nicknames to them. IE

Tiger Stadium-Death Valley
Michigan Stadium-The Big House
Ohio State-The Shoe
Florida-The Swamp
Georgia-Between the Hedges
etc etc.

Since BDS is getting an expansion, will the stadium acquire sort of a "nickname" as well?

Originally nicknamed "Deaf Valley", but was later changed due to continued miscommunication.

I vote for a reshuffling of names. WE take death valley. LSU can have "the swamp" and Florida renames theirs gangsters paradise.

please, bish. TS was around before BDS, has more history, is a more traditional college FB stadium and has gotten louder and more raucous than BDS could dream.
