But its a lot harder to say how different a $250 million vs $450 million renovation should look.

Hopefully this renovation will include ramps to make the stadium more accessible to Michael Thomas.

There is no doubt that corruption is rampant in Louisiana. Just look at how narrow the Huey P Long bridge is. As I understand it, for every inch shaved off the side money was pocketed by corrupt politicians. This is just one example of shameless greed running Louisiana. Even our governor flies first class....
