Letter from Joe Alleva
Dear Tiger Fan,
Prior to the 2010 football season we embarked on a campaign to raise funds to replace approximately 400 windows in the north end of Tiger Stadium, the beginning of a beautification project to enhance the stadium.
Of course, it did not take long for our great fans to step up once again and purchase all the windows on North Stadium. It is clear that Tiger Stadium is important to LSU fans everywhere, and that was evident in the response to replace these windows.
As I have said many times before, Tiger Stadium is one of the most iconic venues in all of college sports, and it is has even more meaning for LSU fans around the world. The memories that have been created in Death Valley are precious ones and it is vitally important that we maintain and enhance this 86-year-old home of the Tigers.
Now we have embarked on the next phase of
improvement to Tiger Stadium with the renovation of the gates on the west side of the stadium. Tiger fans have already made many donations to get the project underway and we continue to take donations for this project.
My thanks to the Tiger Athletic Foundation and the many great donors continue to help us reach our financial goals for the upkeep of the greatest stadium in college sports. There is still much to be done to revitalize Tiger Stadium, but this is a very important beginning.
If you are interested in learning more about making donations to future projects, please contact the TAF Development Department at 225-578-4823 or log on to the TAF website at www.lsutaf.org or www.PreserveDeathValley.com.
Thanks, Tiger fans. Let's make sure Tiger Stadium lasts for many more great memories.
Geaux Tigers!
