Cajun Field Renovation Plans

Cincinnati Bearcats should be our blue print think this will satisfy everyone! Include a canopy around the entire bowl to keep the sun and rain off the fans, and keep in the crowd noise.

Cincinnati Bearcats should be our blue print think this will satisfy everyone! Not to much seating to the upper deck.

From this picture it is not very impressive.

Don't want to think about expansion but if we did we could always do what they did add a small top deck to the visitor side. Here is what I would want as far as a canopy.

If we are going to spend $50mm plus, it really needs to have a WOW factor.

Upper deck as in sections EE FF DD CC BB AA maybe. UA UB UC UD UE UF should absolutely stay.

Is UA-F structurally independent AND self sufficient?

Tear down upper deck and build mini version of Oklahoma State, plenty of premium seating..the design would block the setting sun and everyone would be on top of the field.

Yup. Then add the video board that’s 40 yards wide.

Going to include a picture because it helps me picture it. We would just have the lower bowl, and a small upper deck blend in with the lower bowl all the way around with the press box and suites going all the way around Cajun Field! Include the canopy then I say we got a winner.

My only concern is that since our stadium is dug in that the structure would not be high enough to block the sun.

Now we just have to find our own T Boy Pickens and we’ll be all set

I don’t think this is unreasonable plan, you would have a lot of revenue being produced and you would be including all levels of boosters because the different locations would be sold at different levels. You could house the athletic department and have several club areas that people in the stands could purchase passes to. The structure is much easier to build on the concourse than what it cost to build up. This also IMO would put us around the 32k’sh seating which is plenty

Imagine if the current video board was in the corner instead of the end zone..or they could be creative right there in that corner..anything would be better than nothing..you would be surprised how much faster the sun would set behind 2 stories of building. You just need to block it when it’s brutally blinding at sunset. Also we would have no “upper deck”. The current balcony would become the balcony of the new patio suites
