Used to attend games there as a kid growing up. Always loved how it was designed. I didn't attend ULL but they have success in the future.

I believe Ben-Hill Grifin Stadium already has that name. They should call it new orleans bowl west

Careful, the Cajuns are sensitive about their name.

It was a grass hill. There's another one on the other endzone that will become the same thing eventually if the attendance goes up like it has in recent years.

Hill. They're adding seating to the south end zone to make room for the upper-deck fans that will be displaced when Phase II of the Cajun Field renovations begin. (Renovating upper-deck, and adding new suites/press box)

Once their coach is gone, they'll have an empty stadium again when they're back to losing.

IIRC Cajun Field being called The Swamp predates Ben Hill Griffin being called that.

They should pay a higher price. They'll have actual seats now. That shite doesn't just maintain itself for free.

I'm not sure how they'll price those seats. I would assume general admission prices...I sent an email asking about them the other day, but didn't get a response yet.
