That isn't true, because their outfield doesn't seat 4,000. If you really want to get down to it, go over it on those aerials in the OP. Combined, max capacity of their outfield is about 1,600 people. They pad their in-the-park seating capacity by 4,000 all the time. 11,000 people in the crowd just isn't possible at Swayze.


You can literally look at the top photo and tell there are more than 1,600 people in the outfield

Our baseball stadium isn’t the best, but it is a cool setting for those playing and in attendance. Sits in a whole with the outfields and all above it.

When I'm in a hole, things don't seem whole.

I'm not trying to be mean, but that number is total bullshite. Here's an actual crowd of around 11,500-12,000 at Arkansas. Notice our Left Field starts right up next to the fence (Ole Miss is set back a good 50 ft). And ours is not packed out in this pic. Just a quick visual comparison shows you our outfield on one side seats as many as their two sides do. Its a bigger area, and you can't even see all of it (including bleachers) in this pic. Use the Batter's Eye for reference.

And our grandstands are a helluva lot bigger.

Baum has 10,800 actual chairback seats in the grandstands and suites.

Swayze has actual seating for like 7,000 (if that).

bullshite. The student side seats maybe 800. 200 per little section.

I've been to both parks. Swazye feels small by comparison. It isn't close.

You can look at the two pics I posted above.

The left field at Arkansas would encompass that entire parking lot sitting behind your general admission area. It also isn't terraced and people cram in SRO for big games.

Outfield terraced seating isn't half the density of grandstand seats anyway.

Just an observation. Carry on with your delusions.

It’s hard for me to believe that you have been to Swayze and think RF capacity maxes are 800

Our stadium is definitely top 5 and the outfield could and should be upgraded but is a unique experience. I always thought S. Carolina had a better park than us based on TV but it’s not half as pretty as O-U in-person.

Is that the softball or soccer field in the first pic you see above the baseball?

Your baseball stadium isn’t top 5. Not really close even. Cool atmosphere but that’s it.

Teams in SEC alone with better stadiums off the top of my head.

Arkansas
LSU
South Carolina
State

All those stadiums are much nicer than Swayze or whatever it’s called
