Neither of our stadiums have as much SRO as the smaller, open-ended stadiums at Mizzou, Arkansas, South Carolina, and Mississippi State have. I know South Carolina has 5,000 SRO spaces, for example.


Ole Miss has a lot of space but doesn't sell tickets for SRO. The whole east and south sides of the stadium have standing room.

Hey Pivey, that really looks awesome. I can't wait for our North Endzone reno. It's good to see us Mississippi schools finally investing in the campus stadiums. Getting out of playing in Jackson was the best thing for both schools.

Gladly, I never attended a game there.

As you can imagine, it was a completely shitty place. The surrounding neighborhood is terrible too. I only went to one game, the last Ole Miss game against VMI in 1996.

I'm all Dawg for that game. I went two years ago in a State shirt and received shite all day for it. I don't mind it, it just gets old after the first 5 "tiger baits"

It blows my mind that y'all finished before we did. Our half-arse workers need to get off their arse.

Yeah you guys were well ahead of us for quite awhile. They're still working around the clock on TS, but at one point earlier in the year they had a full crew of workers out there 24/7.

I mean, it'll be done before the season starts, but I'm ready for it to be done.

Exactly. Why spend more money speeding it up?

I love Tiger stadium. It's the best road trip in my opinion by far. But the stadium itself is completely hodgepodge. There are no parts like the other. The new endzone looks great but it doesn't mesh well with the rest of the stadium.

Meh, with the south end zone resembling the north end zone now, we're really down to remaking the east and west sides to match.



It's not uncommon for stadiums to look markedly different in spots.
