Then after JFF leaves and Miles retires both can get into a pissing contest about who's stadium looks emptier on TV.



A&M's smallest crowd since our expansion in 1999, 72,500 or so, would have filled up Razorback stadium with some change leftover.

Stupid fricking Arky.

No amount of blue crayon is going to keep me from being excited about this.

Right, because if LSU had added temporary seats for big home games ala A&M, the would not have been filled.

In '99 they enclosed the stadium (adding about 12,000 more seats but can get in around 70,000) and added suites. That was the last big one.

They did video board/audio and ribbon upgrades in 2011.

We don't have a "track" just space where it used to be. The space will be reduced but wont go away completely.

Will A&M be maxed out with consideration to upper deck space?

Indeed. Everyone is pretty excited about it because it's been sorely needed. Nutter Fieldhouse will also go under a large renovation in the process which will benefit indoor track and field as much as football. Nutter has hosted the SEC Indoor Track and Field Championships several times in the last the last ten years or so.

I honestly don't know. The corners wont be completely enclosed so probably not.

Good question. Maybe we could fill in the small wedges but I have no idea if its possible, structurally speaking.

That will be a great problem to have.

I think LSU just stole a photo from a Sega Dreamcast game.
I think they took a sketch artist to Bryant Denny for that end zone addition.

They want to be Bama soooo bad.
