New Scoreboard in the Dome

_ with all due respect sir, the old one was a piece of you know what. _

yeah, your right. A nice high def screen would be nice..if that's what they are planning..

_ 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) _

Talked with peanut guy sorry I cant recall his name at the moment) at the Black Pot festival, he told me Sodexco told he had to raise the price. At the festival he was charging 2 bones!

_ I noticed they were taking down the outside video screen before the game.. are they replacing that too?.. I thought the old one was pretty nice. _

I just drove by and it is on and working although there's just some random images being displayed. Looks really nice!

you mean the Chris Farley lookalike..lol.. I heard him tell someone cotton candy was 3.00.. how much profit you think they make on that!..

_ I am in the same boat. I like the look they bring, but they do distract. Maybe they can be managed during play. _

When they installed the same boards at Kyle Field two years ago they were terribly overwhelming at first. They fine tuned them to make them not so distracting. Hopefully they can do similar tweaks at the Cajundome.

_ I've got no problem with that. Budweiser sold out to a Belgian company. Why should we send even more of our dollars overseas?

What do I care anyway. I'm a Coors Lite man myself. Tap the Rockies baby. _

Lite beer drinkers have no business commenting on BEER.

Put it up at the football stadium. Anything would be an improvement over what we have.

How can they even call that lite stuff "beer"?

So they can charge you just as much as real beer.

I drink Coors Light and a wise man once told me that he calls it "Sex in a Canoe" because it's "F______ close to water"
