I love going to Tiger Stadium, but I think most LSU fans/alums would agree it needs some modernizing.


Tiger Stadium needs concourse work in the worst way. It's like a damn dungeon. I'd seen some pictures of Neyland that are nice


Those aren't money makers though. They're anesthetic and fan experience improvements but they don't make much impact for the university relative to the cost spent. That's why I think the next frontier is what Tennesse did and what Aggy is doing. Doing away with lesser sold upper deck areas in favor of more premium areas. Social decks or suites.

will need a pretty strong arm to toss a mustard bottle from the party deck and actually hit the field.

I’m not even saying this to troll, but Neyland really sucks. It’s huge of course, but it’s a cramped Ugly shithole.


Hey now, we can't all have a 60k glorified HS stadium adorned with a bed of ugly rocks behind an entire endzone like Mizzou. If only we had a a stadium like Mizzou

stadium is a shithole, campus and city are nice but Neyland is the most overrated stadium in the SEC possibly the country

Those nice chairs with large spaces in between look to me like companion seats with space for wheelchair users in between, if so that is very nice. I've been in a wheelchair since I was 16 and wheelchair seating can be iffy, especially in older stadiums. Good deal Vols.

But f*ck Tennessee anyway.

Is the visiting side concourse still about the width of a single wide? Not sure if that was just to enhance the experience and make it feel like home for UT fans but it was quite ridiculous

I was fortunate to watch a Georgia-Tennessee game from the West Club at Neyland Stadium and, gotta admit, it was pretty great.

In the lower bowl, they are really limited due to the ramps inside the stadium necessary to go up to entrance portals. I sit in the NEZ a good bit and without putting some sort of ramp or escalator on the exterior of the stadium (which will never happen as it would destroy the coliseum look along N Stadium drive) there just isnt any room. Same applies to the East and West sidelines.

Tiger Stadium needs some upgrades also.


UF is looking some at major renovations to The Swamp here soon. Stricklin has recently thrown out a $600M number.

Best stadium the in the SEC by far. Anyone saying otherwise is just jealous.

There is nothing that compares to the atmosphere of Neyland at night for a big rivarly game.
