Ask any successful restaurant, is better to look full than empty.

A lot of restaurants that were raking it in when small, added seating and looked empty then had to close.

Same principle.

I'm with not bowling. I'd much rather see them spend money on upper deck and make outside of stadium look more presentable.
Added seats ain't going to help.

Up next, organizing exciting promos including hype videos, coaches and athletic personnel being involved ON CAMPUS. It wouldn't hurt some of the coaches to ride around in a golf cart and socialize with students on campus. Create an excitement for the next game and its a snowball effect. And of course moving into a better conference. :)

Caleb, we've won more games in a four years stretch and four bowl games than at any other time in our modern football history until last season. The victory bell is nothing but lipstick and a cheap diversion from spending money in the areas you suggested, MARKETING! But what do you expect from a small time operation that said we will get production equipment when we win the lottery. Outside of the local Sonics, Popeyes and McDonalds, this athletic and marketing department has no real concept of promotion and branding.

well up until beating an FCS team we were on a 5 game losing streak so it is hard to sell out cajun field. I do like the victory bell though (except it should have been louder), and I agree that marketing needs to get better. It's a group effort by the athletic department that needs to be all in!

Martin Hall doesn't have the intestinal fortitude to do that. I'd applaud them if they did that. But...

Remember the Louisiana crawfish vs ULM 3 years ago? They don't have the stones.

The second deck needs to be redone regardless of capacity. It's in bad shape

I know it would be expensive, but I'd like to see the lower bowl redone to match the end zone seating.

Agreed
