YESCO Electronics Manufactured and Installed New Video System at LSU Tiger Stadium
LOGAN, Utah –Â YESCO Electronics has manufactured and installed a state-of-the-art video system for Louisiana State University Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge. The displays are part of the expansion of the historic 90-year-old stadium. The video upgrades will be turned on for the Tiger's home opener against Sam Houston State on September 6, 2014.
"LSU is pleased to bring a new visual experience to Tiger Stadium with the high-definition imagery of the new video board system," said Eddie Nunez, Senior Associate Athletic Director. "The capabilities that we will be able to implement on game day will only enhance what is already the best atmosphere in college football. The innovative team at YESCO understood our needs and outperformed our expectations."
Death Valley fans will watch game time action and instant replays in crisp, high definition detail. The north end zone features a 28' x 80' video screen along with two 375 square foot auxiliary displays. Two 40' x 68' screens provide a striking new look to the south end zone. YESCO also manufactured over 1,300' of fascia displays for the south, east and west sections of the stadium. Each video screen features a true 16 mm pixel pitch. The project was designed by Anthony James Partners.
"We are very excited to be a part of the Tiger Stadium expansion team," said Chris Olinger, Director of Live Event Sales for YESCO Electronics.
