this. As an LSU student, I feel like Ole Miss and South Carolina got way more our of what they payed for than we did.


Those schools are finished, or largely so. LSU has at least one more expansion planned.

What is in these other "phases"?

I would have been thrilled had they gone through with the huge berm and a water fixture close by. It isn't bult for suites down to teh outfield like Baum. It is embarrassing we did not go all chairback.

Swayze is very, very nice but I would still put it behind the Box, Baum and Carolina Stadium. Just my opinion of course.


That's fine. It's definitely not a dump.

Not to mention the stadium is not accessible from all places, and it looks like they left construction shite out past right field. It'd also be tha tits if they got rid of the U-High park and made a nice area to tailgate.

You pretty much answered your own question. Remember, the current outfield stands are from the Old AB. the eventual goal is to expand the main grandstand down both outfield fences. Prolly not at the same time.

For the love of God, do we have to look so cheap with bleachers? bleachers?? That is fricking cheap, skip. I have a great appreciation for how well of ambassadors the Lady Tigers are to our program, but to spend millions and millions on a softball stadium should come second to making The Box perfect.

Swayze doesn't hold a candle to Baum. Not even close.

That's the reality of Title 9. I wasn't going to bring that up, but you just hit it on the head why AB was built in stages instead of all at once.

what a waste of phucking money. Jumbo trons are good for 40k+ seat stadiums, not college parks.

And why would someone brag about the condition of their park when they have no trophies to display.

Let's get some Gamecock fans in here. They have a nice park and a trophy in their trophy case. Along with the Tigers of course.

And I know UGA has a trophy, but their park suuucks.

That article was written before the completion of our rennovations which more than doubled swayze's capacity. Try again.

Well I am not sure if the title advised us t spend nine-million dollars on a softball stadium. shite, Tulane's new baseball stadium cost that much.

Regardless, bleachers, no possibility for an amount of suites like Baum, construction shite sitting around the outfield, no 360 access of stadium, etc...i wish you'd elaborate more on these phases, because there is an endless list of shite that could be done.
