Just like everything else at A&M, just another meaningless thing y’all will call “tradition”.

It’s been an Olsen Field tradition for years.
There isn’t a college baseball fan/purist who doesn’t know that.
There’s a reason the Arky fan referenced Aggie Baseball in his tweet.

Why does our university having traditions bother you?
Nothing to which to give a second thought, really.

State, LSU, Arkansas, and Ole Miss have to be the best.

You could probably make an argument for each. South Carolina has a great park too.

Oh, honey… you didn’t understand the difference of what bothers us vs. what makes us laugh at you, do you?

And you’re a fan of a pathetic program that wishes it was us

Actually, you probably wish you were us in a lot more than sports. utrejects.com

I agree… All depends on the situation within the game.

Of course that's a great group!! That they have 6 CWS Championships between them is solid proof they are the best 4.


you left out a school that has 2 titles and 6 finals appearances.

our image took a little bit of a hit in the last few years, but Gamecock baseball fans get rowdy and still show up.

I'm biased but Baum was awesome all weekend. They also top attendance (right behind LSU) no matter how the season is going. It's just a damn good time.

Ark/MSU
LSU/Ole Miss/SC

Vandy/TN


The rest...

Met a few OU baseball fans/family earlier this year at our midweek game. At this time Baum was about 40 or so % capacity and they were all pretty envious of the facilities and fans. The common theme was the hope/wish that OU would put money into the program to try and attract more fans.

It’s sad when the Condos at your ballpark are the nicest in town. Arkansas is already going to have around 30 boxes at their stadium when right field is finished.

There are so many nice places to live in Fayetteville it would be stupid to do something like that at Baum.

The nicest thing in Starkville is there baseball field so it makes sense to have Condos at that place.

Attendance matters but LSU is a smidge below only because they just lost intensity and craziness in their crowd. I'm not sure if it's the way it's setup or what but the old Box was tops.

Only reason I put AR/MSU at the top is all factors, not just attendance. I wouldn't have Vandy/TN anywhere close if so.

ARKY / MSU

I wish Auburn AD would get off their arse and create a free outfield student section that allows booze etc.

Ole Miss counts 4,000 in the outfield every game, which is physically impossible in the space you have. Look any any aerial of the stadium during the game. It maxes out at around 1500 in both sides combined.

They've done it since the last renovation.

Ole Miss reported baseball attendance = tickets sold in the grandstand + 4,000.

There has never been a crowd in that stadium over 9500 people.
