Cajun Field Expansion ??

[beavis11]

LAst hight I saw a replay of the LA High school football magazine show with Lee Bricheen. Gerald Hebert & Coach Phillips were his guests. This show was taped after the Kent St win & before the K-state game. Gerald mentioned all of the exciting things happening and that Cajun Field would be expanded to seat 46000 and would include 31 or 33 luxury suites. Sound nice - anyone see drawings or hear of this ???

I think filling in both end zones would get our capacity near 46k. I'm sure a project like this would be done in phases and I hope the expanded seating would be the final phase. Luxury suites and a complete overhaul of the press boxes should have priority.

Either way I hope this rumor comes to fruition in my lifetime.

How hard would it be to get an artist rendering and begin raising funds?

It will.

Just be patient. We've got a few years of other stuff to do first.

Who said it doesn't exist already?

They do. I've seen them with my own eyes.


Just don't ask for them. Them things are under lock and key, and anybody giving them out will be put under double secret probation.

I've seen the drawings. Very nice. Go and meet with Scott Farmer. He will be happy to sit down with you and discuss it.

Lot of different ideas and I think that T-Joe thought that making the bowl was the best idea when factoring the bucks!!! the tearing down of the upper deck and new press box were also mentioned!!! I think upper level structure stuff was a big factor!!!

If the drawings exist then why not share it with the general public? The RCAF should have that drawing on the cover of there brochure, or at least a story in the DA or LaLouisiane.

Why keep good news away from the public?

Please, give it a rest. That is not ALWAYS the solution.

Although I will give you props for taking time out of your day to do it. Not everyone can be so lucky

I think this would be a great idea, for us to expand to 46k and knocking down the upper deck and adding more suits. It would probably look a little like Lambeau Field. If we can put together some great winning season in the SBC it would make us a prime target when conference realignment comes back around again...

Give what a rest? I wasn't being rude or condescending. The poster asked a question and I answered it.

You give it a rest.

_ That's a real smart idea! You have sold out 2 games in the last what 7 years (and they were probably FCS schools... Ex. McNeese and Southern). You average 16,000-18,000, yet you want to spend millions on expanding? terrible idea. How about just renovating that ugly stadium to make it look nice. Especially those high schoolish boxes at the top. _

Turbine, lock the thread, please...or else we're gonna have 3 days of back and forth with this nutjob who may or may not actually be a "hoax" fan!!!

Gawd spare!!
