Curious to know how A&M is making 6 mil in revenue.

They arent really doing that

quote:

The Aggies turned a $1.6 million profit last year, but that was an anomaly, said Jeff Toole, Texas A&M’s chief financial officer for athletics. Included in A&M’s 2015-16 SEC-leading baseball revenue ($6.01 million) is millions in donations to the school for a stadium renovation project.

“Ordinarily it would not show (those numbers),” Toole said. “I would be surprised if LSU is not the most profitable baseball program.”

I wonder how much Blue Bell pays to be the title sponsor of the park.

By the way, the ads behind home plate are not as expensive as you think.

I'm sure they're not. It was a joke about how often Tony's get hated on.

Brings up a good point. Would you rather: The current ad situation -or- the South Carolina look (still ads, but much fewer) in the Gordon McKernan Alex Box Stadium with Skip Bertman field brought to you by Cox Communications in partnership with Oschner.

if you think the players care if Tony's chacheres is on the out field fence the you're delusional.




Tony Chacheres is behind home plate, not on the outfield fence

LSU's baseball stadium looks super cheap with all the outfield ads, IMO. It really looks like shite

Bingo. To a certain extent, the advertisements create a major league type atmosphere. If you look at most major league fields, they almost all have advertisements everywhere you look.

Does the Advocate have a sponsorship on the tarp? If not, that's criminal. My favorite ad placement in MLB stadiums is the local paper making the tarp look like the daily thrown in the yard.


Better tarp than the local paper:

A permanent Batter's Eye would be a minor expense. I have no idea why this has yet to be done.
