Can you take a picture of the back of the scoreboard? I think there are sponsor advertisements there, but not sure. Would be nice to see it repainted, replace Louisiana's with Louisiana and have our logo on the back. The sponsors can get video commercials during the game instead of their corporate logo on the back, where they will get more bang for their buck. Anyone know if something like the Louisiana on the baseball scoreboard is planned or just what the total refurbished package will look like?

I'm pretty sure we can charge more for advertisements facing congress street 365 days a year as opposed to 6 home games.

I bet it will look like this



wcd did not take that picture. Someone from the athletic department took the picture and put it up on social media. Yes, there are still sponsors on the back of the scoreboard frame.

it may have to do with it being a historical building as well.

Yes. EKL is a beautiful and historic building. Not to mention that it must be significantly cheaper to reno it than build something from scratch.

#ADUP365 is worth money

Probably something hidden in the state constitution requiring every campus to have at least one building named after the Longs, the greatest grifters in the history of the state.

This looks good and will require a repainting and renaming of the frame - in Black. In turn, the back of the video board should be painted black and new sponsor logos put on it.
