Cajun Field Renovation Plans

[Ragin9221]

How many times has rained killed the attendance at these games? Always seems like it happens first game of the year.

Nowadays rain keeps people away from WalMart and they have big ole roof.

They don't even want to walk across the parking lot in the rain.

The sun, glare, peak heat problems are fixed with Louisiana Saturday Nights.

This is St. Mary’s Stadium which is Southampton FC’s stadium. The entire stadium cost them a little over $42,000,000 when they built it in 2001. So that’s about $65 million today.

There are many stadiums built similar to this one in the Premier League since teams in England don’t get massive government subsidies for their stadiums like they do here. In these stadiums there are canopies that cover every seat. It isn’t fancy, but it gets the job done. We can accomplish this without having to break the bank.

St Mary's stadium is a perfect example of what we need. There will NEVER be a need for more than 30k seats for UL. Make Cajun field as loud and fan friendly as possible.

Yes I do

Yes I do

I think 35k is a good number with expansion possibilities

we bumped close to 30k per game back in peak Hud

Listen to me. We will NEVER need more than 30k. It's not about wins or losses. It's fandom today. People are too comfortable to go to the stadium. It's just what it is. Expansion will NEVER be needed.

The only time that word never should be used is like this, never say never.

Expansion of tradition seating probably not but you have to have room to grow suites or box seats

Pretty safe to say never for this reason.
UL has too many seats and LSU has WAY too many seats. Times they are a changing. Everyone wants to watch at home. It will only get worse.

I wouldn’t say we’d never need more than 30k seats...I could envision the perfect storm season and selling out for a season or 2...that never part would come into affect for need of +30k seats for consecutive yearS....
