Cajun Field Construction

Lafayette Parish.

250,000 people in Lafayette Parish and you're saying <5000 people from Lafayette Parish have stepped foot in Cajun Field?

I thought it was twice that (I looked you are correct)

Im not speaking of all time, I'm speaking of current residents.

Not students or the ones who died off, moved away, or built in the suburbs.

Upon reflection the number is higher

So 2% of 125,000 (2500)?

or 2% of 250,000 (5000)?

You have to admit, this is hyperbolic speculation?

Turbine, as a historian of the athletic program, you are invaluable and when arguing with other folks about the reality of our program, I cite you with great frequency.

But sometimes your reliance on hyperbole sells you short.

[CajunNation]

We should have total market saturation in the entire area of Acadiana. Advertise and evangelize by every means possible in this area. This is where we get the most bang for our buck.

. . . you are the best at just disregarding all that would trend against your agenda . . . including me . . .

Louisiana Athletics has an opportunity for growth and awareness.

They've barely tapped the surface.

But sometimes your reliance on hyperbole sells you short.

Upon further reflection the percentage is much higher, but dismally low by most standards.

It begins and ends with UL students. You build a fan base and donor base with current students.

We do a poor job of doing that.

Shout this from the rooftops!

Its the only way and apparently they dont understand that

98% don't know Cajun Field is more than just the upper deck.

On this topic I would guess 85% dont know of potential changes.

What’s going to happen when they eliminate the upper deck and you can just see the press box and suites from congress? You still won’t see the lower deck with the hill. Will 98% think cajun field is just a press box and luxury suites?

. . . and the tops of the goal posts . . .

The paradigm shifts.

A huge upperdeck is misleading. (unless your focus is goal posts)

Suites and several rows leads one to conclude there is more.

[CajunVic]

. . . only 1% will believe there is something else there . . .

I see no way people will see that upper deck, with the press box, across the field from that wall, with all those numbers and names of retired players next to them, will ever think there are seats below, but once the press box is built all fancy with fancy suites they will then and only then start to assume that seats are below? Got you.

According to some sources here, there will also be a new structure on the east side. The uninformed passerbys will be thrown for a loop
