It would be nice if someone could post pictures of the plans for skyboxes & new baseball stadium grandstand for fans that are out of town.

Gerald does not have them on disk just a hard copy.

Would probably take someone with a really cool digital camera to get access to them. Wouldn't be as clear as an original; but it could work.

Good idea....I will see if I can do it.

-There will be a major announcement very soon regarding a revenue!

This sounds eerily similar to a post I once heard a long time ago. I think it said something like ...January will be sweet.....hmmmmmmmm.

This was announced by Gerald on the radio this morning.

Is there any plans on when this will be built?

Installing new signs.....

Looks much better than the previous idea of the signs...

are they going to wash the brick to clean it up to match the rest? (I know. I'm picky)

I wrote to Gerald following the LSU game and emailed him again last week. I called twice and left messages, but no return call. My point was to clean up the area around the stadium. Gerald gets new brick gated entrances that look great, but leaves the old rusted link fence and gate that is a major eyesore; not to mention the weeds growing around the base of the fence and gated area and weeds growing just about everywhere. Grass is uncut and the entire complex looked really bad. The Cajundome doesn't have a fence around its property and the grass is manicured and looks terrific. Why do they need the link fence around the athletic complex, particularly around Cajun Field parking lot? It is a major eyesore. And, this is not even around the construction area, but everywhere else. I understand the fence will be replaced at some point. In the meantime, remove it and get rid of this terrible eyesore.

There are many positive things happening, but it is inexcusable not to have the complex in top shape year round, every week. This was a holiday weekend and I was embarassed to show it to my family and friends. The median on Cajundome blvd. had grass about a foot high and uncut as were along the sidewalk areas outside of the fence around Cajun Field parking. If the City of Lafayette is responsible for this, make sure the City takes care of it. There are a lot of other things that I went into in my email to Gerald that I won't elaborate on here.

This is one of my pet peeves, but there is no reason not to have clean, neat, well kept facilities that we can be proud to showcase all year and not just on game days. This is a very important area that has been grossly overlooked and not that costly to remedy. This needs to be addressed and I thought Gerald would be the best person to go to on this. Hopefully, he will at least read my emails and take positive action.

And by the way, if anyone of you reading this is a decision maker around the Ath Dept., that hideous chain-link fencing needs to be replaced SOON, and not by more chain-link fence, but by something more akin to what is around the Tigue. Like SLC said, if you aren't going to replace it SOON, take it down now. Appearance is everything and the section along Bertrand and Congress is the most visible area of the Ath Dept.
