You sure? Maybe the picture is deceiving but that ladder looks no taller than 10 feet

That is an 8' ladder. When open, I believe they're closer to 7'. The short side is around 6', probably lower.

I am really concerned that LSU built a home bullpen capable of only warming 1 pitcher at a time.
I’m almost as concerned as Tennessee and A&M fans.

in your last ban, did you decide to study Willy T and Stephen's posting habits and try to combine them?

You forgot 2 time Academic All Big-12.
Oh...and he also reached base 7 times being hit by pitches.

Thats an 8 foot werner. The angle makes the other side look shorter but at the base of the pitch it is around 9-10 ft. where the left plate is in the the pen (like 3-4 feet to the right) is easily 12 ft.

We’re all sorry that Aggy couldn’t embarrass themselves again due to a burn ban in Robertson County.
Scoring only one TD at home against your biggest rival before losing 4 straight power conference games was embarrassing enough

an 8' ladder is 8' when stored. The ladder is shorter than 8' when open. The ladder looks taller than the bottom of the "ceiling". Best case its 7' there.

… and it took Tennessee 127 years to win its FIRST National Championship.
Shut up and sit down.

LSU players will have to be sitting down in that bullpen. LOL.

Understandable since LSU leadership has never let you down before.
Can we get an adult male to stand in there for a picture, preferably not the head coach?

You remember the time you lost your whole team?

Also I don't know what you mean. I thought Ole Miss has bleachers in the outfield?
No its tiered, and there are grills etc, you can set up lawn chairs.

They did some dumb tent in right field for club seating. looked awful.
right field for students is as fun as you can have outside with your clothes on.

Imagine taking 11 years a head coach to win any sort of national championship. 11 fcking years.
I don't have to imagine, I can name two Hall of Famers who took longer than that:
Tom Osborne took 21 years to win one at Nebraska.
Bobby Bowden took 17 years to win a title at FSU.
ETA: Hell, it took Neyland 25 years at Tennessee.

At least Ole Miss fans could drink their own beer while watching their team fail to make the NCAA tournament the past 2 years

Doubtful like usual they will likely be in the dugout and run down to the pen when it’s time to warm up

That is real and is after renovations. Other teams can't see who LSU is warming up. Oh no!
That’s not the intent it’s where they had room to move the Pen to for now to get it off the field. The pen being on the field was a safety issue nothing to do with strategy. It won’t surprise me if there’s actually not a camera and live feed to the visiting teams dugout to see who’s warming up that’s how most places in mlb do it not sure on college

This is the model I want them to follow with Kudzu Hill at UGA. Move the scoreboard to left field, make foul pole to right center tiered and tell students they can bring what they’d like. With the houses on top of the hill above them, it’d be one of the best spots to watch a game in the conference.

surely LSU fans arent happy about all the corners that have been cut since the groundbreaking of the new Box.
We aren't. Every "update" we do we make sure to do it the cheapest and jankiest way possible.
This year we fricked up the foul line with cheap arse "premium" seats and then we added the crappy bullpen. But we at least got rid of the terrible colored ads on the outfield wall and they are now just white lettering like pretty much everyone else on the planet that realized colored ads looks trashy.
