Cajundome Renovations 2016

[California Cajun]

They had a 30th anniversary luncheon today and showed the pic of the renovations. It's somewhat different from your picture.

For starters, all the seats will be black.

Do these renovations satisfy past complaints about "not a 'pit' atmosphere?"

[CajunEXPRESS]

Can't, the dome is too big. I sat at the top of the second level sec 211. I was at least 30 yards from center court and fifty feet up.

Marty had the Cajuns receiving top 25 votes. No coach since Marty has equaled his accomplishments

Marlin will. And will surpass those accomplishments. Beginning this year.

Marty still the only coach to win an NCAA tournament game. Beat Kentucky & Cincinnati. Beat #4 Oklahoma twice in same year. Once in regular season and the NCAA tournament.

Loved Marty 's combative wife and all the bling she wore. By the end of Tim Floyd's tenure Marty was beating him on a regular basis.

The wins over OU came in consecutive years, I think. But your point is taken. 1991-92 is still the best Cajun team to play in the Dome. (2003-04 was close).

We were eight deep. We could shoot it (Allen, Starks, Moore). We could distribute it (Mouton). We could rebound it (Hill, Stokes, Mackyeon, Boudreaux)

When Denver was in the league I would go out with Cynthia and have dinner the night before the games, even after Marty finished coaching. She was, and is, quite a lady. You always knew where you stood with her.

That was a very good team, C-Mack was still one of my favorite players. Stokes was a monster on the boards and String Bean (Hill) was perfect in that offense, he could score and rebound.

I sit courtside and feel that I will be priced out those seats, which I would understand.
Just it will be a little sad for me, as a now deceased friend and I shared a ton of good times in those seats.

Sad. My Father in law has been having 2-4 seats down there for over a decade.

Your friend that sat with you passed away? We sit in 112 behind you. Sad to hear that.

Before anyone freaks out over being priced out of seats, lets see what happens. We are not close to selling out the first two levels of the dome, so I do not see them making prices outrageous. The same for baseball, I believe there are going to be around an extra 700 seats in the grandstand. Now baseball I can see those 700 seats being sold.

Relax take a deep breath and drink more bourbon. Geaux Cajuns!

[Crawfish]

Don't be rediculous, you know this crowd never misses an opportunity for a good meltdown, even if the "crisis" is not real.

One of my favorite memories of Stokes was LTUR coming into the dome with Anthony Dade and their fans chanting "Dade the Machine" early on. Then Marcus proceeded to completely domInate him for most of that game.

[CrazyCajun]

It's not the universities job to decide if you can afford what tickets where, it's their job to sell all the tickets possible while getting highest $$ the market will allow.

I was at that game. By the end of the game the Cajun fans were chanting Dade Sux, Dade Sux...

It was awesome.
