What will it take for LSU to put chair backs down the lines and get some proper seating setups in the outfield?

It all depends on Kiffin and getting football back into top form. If football does well money will increase for the AD in general and it will benefit all sports. That is why it was so important to go all in on football.

Jay wants a dome equipped with a full size baseball field so he can practice when it rains, and an Olympic size pool stocked with sharks who have laser beams attached to their freaking heads.

The fans don’t matter.

LSU could easily fix the seating down the lines being that it’s not connected to original foundation. They’re just cheap.

The outfield bleachers are from the Laval days. There is no reason LSU can’t have chair backs down the lines. They’re not creative and tout paid attendance while every other school has done upgrades in the almost 20 years.

Theres been no announcement for an indoor facility that Jay has wanted.

No, Sucks.. But, that is the truth.. There is a waiting list that isn't even a true waiting list with how many people want season tickets for the Box. They could double their prices and people wouldn't drop because they wouldn't get them back.

LSU has baseball fans by the nuts and they know it..

The biggest reason I want chairs in Tiger Stadium and Alex Box is so you have your seat no matter how many people are at the game.

When Tiger Stadium and the Box get packed the fats spill over and people try to cram people without tickets in that section onto the row and your seat disappears.

If they built more suite's, could they sell them & use that additional $ to improve sideline & bleacher seats?

I mean considering how shitty their stadium was before it’s an improvement. But I’m with you I though it was kind of just meh

They should’ve done that from the get go. Skip Bertman was just notoriously cheap. Should’ve done something similar.

It’s an upgrade for them, but LSUs upgrades included adding 40 premium seats where the bullpens were and moving LSUs bullpen to under the bleachers with some sheet metal and two lights.

if they do them you agree you would be willing to pay more right?

and we still lead the nation in attendance every year...doesn't seem to make a difference in having them or not
