yes, however I have been to USC's since the renovation and still did not like it that much. I was only rating the parks that I have been to. Not all of them.

For now, the backdrop behind home plate isn't the most attractive looking compared to USC's, but the way the roof just towers over the stands makes the new Alex Box so impressive. Plus, when they eventually expand the suites down both lines (Let's hope this happens) it will look even better.

also, LSU's definitely doesn't seem to be quite as nice as a few of the others on the inside, but the outside from what I can tell has the most character and is proabably the best looking.

I'm sorry but I just don't get it. I don't see how you can compare any stadium that has 100 rows of bleachers(MSU and LSU) with any other teams parks, such as, Arkansas, USC, and Ole Miss that doesn't. Those things are hideous and take away a ton in the looks category. If the premise is to vote whose stadium is the best looking aesthetically.

I completely agree that having bleacher style seats takes away from the appearance of a stadium, which is one of the main reasons that I think USC's is nicer looking on the inside. I think Ole Miss' whole stadium is just blah. Sure, it is nice, but it has no character whatsoever and I find it kind of ugly.

And if we are voting on which stadium is the best looking aesthetically then LSU would be near the top but probably not #1 on my list just because the inside isn't nearly as expensive and professional looking.

Yeah bleachers suck, but the outside and corridor of the stadium looks infinitely better than any other team in the SEC imo. The rest are unoriginal brick on the outside which is hideous and takes away a ton in the looks category. If the premise is to vote whose stadium is the best looking aesthetically.

p.s.I think that the stadium structure rather than where peoples butts rest is more important to looks.

Renovation??? USC built a brand new stadium from the ground up. It was just completed last week. No games have been played there yet. When were you there to see it?

another thing i have noticed about the new box is that it is much, much, much more impressive in person than in pictures.

I know there are Fancier Stadiums but to me Dudy Noble Field in Left Field Lounge on a beautiful day with the Grills fired up and the smell of BBQ smoke in the air and cowbells ringing and 10,000 people cheering for the Dogs is as close to heaven as it gets..
Preach on brotha!!!

Eagle, I've never been to a baseball game at Auburn but your stadium looks very nice.
Mississippi State has a great atmosphere.

I agree. I hate bleachers. That's why I hate Ole Miss' football stadium.

In like 96 or 97 Playboy Magazine voted Mississippi State's Left Field Lounge one of the top 10 best places to watch a baseball game in the world.
