They're supposed to be the exact same dimensions. We took a tour of it for an American Society of Civil Engineers luncheon with the architect and structural engineer, and that was what they told us. However, I could have sworn that it looked a lot smaller. Then again, they just had chain-link fencing up behind the outfield, which may have made it look smaller. Although, common sense tells me that should make it look bigger. But someone even asked again during the tour, and that was what they said.
DO IT!!!! Definitely. I really need to meet you, batty and Okie in person. Nootch and a few others as well. Hell I need to meet everyone here. We need to try and set something up!
I looked at the construction photos on lsusports.net and they were taken on Tuesday, Jan. 13. I don't pretend to know a lot about construction work but it sure looks like they are going to have to work non-stop to be ready for Feb. 20.
I plan on making at least a handful of games this year. My plan for opening day has been shot to sh!t now, so that day ain't gonna happen.
