New Scoreboard in the Dome

[RaginFan]

The new HD video screen is magnificent and I was extremely satisfied to see the statistics boards in the 'corner' of the dome working. The LED boards on behind the baskets are flashy and will be great for advertising.

Great to see the Cajuns run a little more than last year. A few dunks and alley-oops. Defense looked decent to me.

I went early to see the girls play, but didnt get their roster on the information provided at the door. I would liked to have been able to see the roster and last years statistics for the girls along with the boys.

I did not like the increase in prices across the boards for refreshments. Everything I saw increased in price since last season.

$7.75 for a large beer?! A 9.67% increase since last season.....And to top it all off NO BUDWEISER.

Peanuts went up a full 30%. (I was hoping the increase in the football games on peanut prices was a localized thing)

If the prices were anywhere close to reasonable, I'd eat at the game.

Instead, I make sure to stop and grab something on the way.

I know I'm not the only one.

It's really something they should consider when setting these prices.

I love the new system. You can feel the bass. During the womens game I kept watching the video screen because of how clear it is. However, $7"75 for dome foam? Why the increase?

Beer was good but 7.75... Damn!!! Its Draft. It probably cost them .25 cents for 32 oz of beer... Also I noticed the workers are actually employees of the catering company. In years past werent the workers volunteers for a local school or something, with the tips going to the school..? Video screen is nice!

I believe the price increase is due to the cajundome having to charge sales tax now.

Can someone confirm this?

Did anyone notice if there were any A/V improvements made in the concessions areas, or if that was only something done inside the actual arena?

I'm really looking forward to Nov 15th. It will be my third weekend traveling to Lafayette for a Cajuns game, but it will be worth it for the home opener.

I think you are correct. I remember seeing on the sign that sales tax was included in the price.

The TVs that usually broadcast the game next to concession stands were new flat screens, but not large ones.

There are large (approx. 50") flat screens in the concession area, but these did not broadcast the games (who not?), but instead had still advertisements on them. It seemed odd to have nice flat screens with no live action or even moving advertisements on them.

That 9.67% increase is the taxes for Lafayette parrish. It was determined by the powers that be the Cajun Dome sales must be taxed this year.
