You think that money showed up post NIL? :lol:
Fans from where exactly? I get it from the small schools and often at regionals and OOC. Not often an SEC fan talks about how comfy he was. Atmosphere they like.
Don’t forget the replaced the champions club seats with some ergonomic mesh.
That’s what Russia is for. Did you not hear that he sits in the grandstand?!

UK, Florida, and OU all have new parks as well. Auburn, Aggie and Vandy had very recent major upgrades. That’s 8 parks minimum that are in better shape than the box.

The box is like Fenway park, it’s historic
It was built in 2009 :bwahaha:
You act like it has to be one or the other when over half the SEC is doing both.

That, and none of the stadiums at that time had amenities like what we are seeing added to the most recent upgrades
False. USCe and Arky. USCe had a brand new stadium the same year. Baum had a major upgrade. Both with suites and all chair backs and clubs.
It’s big. That’s all it has going for it over most other parks. Suits. Common. Club level. Common. So grandstands. Common.
You’re right. Let’s rebuild the old box. We won there more.
You forgot Arky, Florida, UK, OU, USCe, Vandy, Bama. All with major upgrades or new parks since 2019.

“We should have stayed at the old Box. We won 5 titles there”

Right?
Also, I can’t tell if you are saying we should upgrade the Box only when our teams starts to suck.
Deflect all you want. It’s fine. There isn’t much argument as to why LSU shouldn’t have the premier ballpark in the country. Players come for the coach, the great crowds (they’re rare during the regular season now), and player facilities. The crowds show when we win. We win when we get great coaches and players. Everyone is and should be happy with the on-field results. But we’ve been touting LSU’s shitty stands and experience for the fans for 10 years. It’s not new.
Vandy got one too

Original thread on Tennessee upgrades

Auburn thread

Thread on the $60M Aggie upgrade


Basically, LSU is the only team not drastically improving the fan experience. But sure, the fans don’t donate enough according to Russian.
Didn’t you know that LSU fans spend less than all of those schools who have upgraded since 2009?
Netflix has a great doc on Apollo 11 right now. It’s all original audio and video. Zero voice overs or attempts at story telling. Just the whole thing from prep to take off to flight to landing on the moon and time on the moon and then back. It makes you feel like you were living in the late 60s and witnessing it all within 2 hours. Pretty good.

How much are you willing to commit to help pay for the improvements you'd like to have? $5,000? $10,000?
You pull this schtick during every single one of these threads :lol:
He will likely only hit when he plays due to the nature of needing a backup catcher healthy.
Not sure who plays 2B. Likely a matchup deal. Dardar has been seeing time at 3B more. Braun has to get playing time. Not sure how. We have way more relief pitching than you mentioned.
Excited to sweep Paul to all but clinch a top 8 seed.
