I'm excited for LSU to play in RRS rather than that dump of a stadium in Little Rock. If I was an Arky fan, I'd hate my team playing even 1 game per year in LR while a really nice stadium sits empty in Fayetteville.

I flame the shite out of ya'll sometimes but I'll give credit where its due. Ya'll have a real nice stadium. I'm glad they finally came to their senses and moved such a big game to the better venue.

You and me both. I've been wanting LSU to have to travel the whole way for years. Not only for the logic of adding 25,000 more screaming fans and a 3 hour extension to the drive, but for appearances. I never want to have to show War Memorial on national TV again.

I just stumbled across that picture.. I don't feel like looking it up but the expansion fills this area in correct? That's a lot of otherwise wasted space.

Yesh. It basically will go across the top of the existing building. In the rendering, the little "A" portion and part of the mirrored glass on that building are shown as part of the structure.

The Football Ops center will move most of the stuff in the existing building to just south of the stadium.

I wasn't aware it was going to fill in that gap. Holy shite that's gonna be a big screen.

Well, Drewbie - you're just going to have to put up with WMS for a while longer. Find something else to do on those weekends. Go hunting. Go fishing. Just stay out of Little Rock.

Why? I love it down there. Of course all I have to compare it to is fricking West Plains, MO. I've got family in Texarkana. Wouldn't mind living there, either.

I used to live in Lakewood on waterside dr. Loved the house but hated getting around to places.

Then moved to the heights in LR and its was a lil better but still blew. I just don't like LR.

Dunno. Still waiting for the damn HQ to process my "tier 2 education" even though I outscored everyone I took the test with

I went to Central my freshman year. I loved it, but yes, driving anywhere in Sherwood/LR/NLR is a pain in the arse.
