The Tigue is a special place

Nobody said they were stopping work. It's just that it won't be completed 100% until later in the season. The suites will be the last thing finished that the public will use. They won't be availavle for a full season until next year.

There will be seats, there will be rest rooms and there will be temporary concessions. Everything else is going to happen later on the season. It may not be 100 percent until post season.

Even with just the rest rooms finished it will probably be better than the old stadium. Never been to the old stadium but from what i can tell the rest rooms were a dump.

Considering the fact that I routinely used the Port-o-lets under the bleachers and only stepped foot in the old restrooms about 2 or 3 times a season, yes they were a complete dump. For men, we don't need anything other than the Port-o-lets to be happy... I could see the women complaining though if they don't have completed restrooms haha.

It will be up on the 103.7 web site later today i'm sure. He did say they have started installing seats and it will take about 2 weeks. Also expect rest rooms finished, no press box and temporary concessions. It will be Spartan but usable. Suites next year.

Does that mean permanent re-seating won't take place till next year? I think it was said that no re-seating until suites are complete.

I've heard both sides on that. Some said would be later in the year once suites were done, but I dont see why that would need to be since the suites are now sold out. I'd imagine there will be a trial period over the first month or so where you can get an idea of where you'd like to be if you were to move then they will go through the permanent seating process.

The latest date from Lemoine is mid-May for completion.

Do we know if season tix for the grandstand are sold out yet? Or any tix update?

[cajundiehard]

Grandstand not sold out. I know somebody (general public) that called and was told there is availability in the grandstand.

I don't see what all the fuss is about regarding 1420 getting Cajun sports and people trying to get 103.7 to take over. As far as I'm concerned Dave Shultz is so effin annoying as he cannot conduct an interview without SPEAKING OVER THE GUEST NONSTOP. So count me as a 1420 fan if you're taking note. I don't give 2 shats if Jay Walker stood by Farmer or not because at the end of the day, he is a much better show host than Dave "likes to hear himself talk" Shultz will ever be. I found myself saying out loud "shutup and let the man answer the question" multiple times when Dave was interviewing Eric Crozier right here.

I'll never be a 103.7 fan.

1420 can use some work, sure, but I don't tune into the radio shows to hear the host call out people, I tune in for knowledge of the program. And Jay Walker has Years and Years more knowledge of UL athletics than this joke Shultz. I hope to God 103.7 does not get the new UL contract.

FYI, just drove by the field again... new stadium lights (same as the light poles) are being installed on the edge of the grandstand canopy. I forgot they were planning on adding more lights right there. This will make a big difference for on-field lighting for sure.
