That's a lot to digest, some 2040 memories waiting to happen.

Lol. A little round up will take care of that

In all seriousness they are making the temporary press boxes look pretty nice for what they are. Hopefully they are actually temporary though

I would love it if the hill went away, make our stadium more of an actual horseshoe. Have an elevated walkway that connects the home and student side that runs under the scoreboard, but otherwise make it so that you can see out to Congress St., the Egg, etc. Put a prime in-stadium tailgate area below it if you don't want empty space. Or a visitor's locker room. But I'm not a big fan of the hill itself, babysitter though it may be.

Legend has it that if you use it for anything else Lafayette will flood, metaphorically speaking of course.

Its a symbolic levee protecting the surrounding area from "The Swamp"

Work site inside stadium looks Excellent. Haven't passed outside lately but these pics inside are a good sign. Might have to get a Natty Light truck to stop by one afternoon.

I really like the trailer park lattice skirting they are using on the temporary press boxes. Gives off a Ruston vibe…

The temporary press boxes are just that…temporary. For anyone to think otherwise is pretty shortsighted.

I will enjoy sports wherever the rest of the world lands.

Won't stop me from coming up with generic ideas though. :)

I'm putting in a bid to buy them and then move them to Gueydan for re-sale!
