This solution is guaranteed, cost-effective, aesthetically pleasing, easily applied & COMPLETELY WATERPROOF!

shite they have a crane out there now. The crane rental would be the most expensive part of a cost estimate. You're talking maybe 2 labor hours to paint (let's call it $150/labor hour) + $75 worth of paint. I'm gonna go ahead and say that if done today (using the crane onsite), would cost LSU $500.00.

Submit the change order request to the G.C.

If they felt like they had to put a giant Scotty Moran sign/banner/plaque up in that area it should have been placed in such a way to cover the pipe

Also so much for the thing saying "Tiger Stadium" instead of Scotty Moran. Isn't "Scotty" reserved for kids under 10?

easy there...that's like saying Billy is for kids...leave Scotty out of this topic.

but in all seriousness, I don't see how that hasn't been painted before. there's a ton of pipe running under the overhang where you can't see it, IIRC, but that one is just sticking out like a sore thumb. something should be done.

Once it's been seen, you can't unsee it. It's bright white against shadows and dark gray.

Auburn does a good job of hanging a big AU logo banner on either side of their upper deck if I remember correctly. At least they did in 08. We could do something similar and it would successfully cover the pipe.


I was thinking the same thing.

Several years ago LSU has cool purple and gold banners over on the east side. They could do something similar.

So that shitty Scotty Moran sign is going to be in place of the one that says Tiger Stadium in the drawings?

Hey Scotty, how much did you have to donate to have your name on the archway?
