the fine city of Shreveport, La...a true cultural experience awaits... Gambling Boats, etc..it offers a variety of of interesting things to do. Its a hoot pulling over on the shoulder of the Barksdale Hwy and watching the B52's take off and land.
This fine city takes its homeless off of the streets 1 night during the year...Plying them with liquor, cheetos and I bowl tickets... It is a gesture of the heart.
Props to Shreveport, the largest contingent of LSU and Dallas Cowboy fans anywhere!!!

The Louisiana Tech University Foundation borrowed the money to construct the video board at Tech. Leerfield had NOTHING to do with it. Foundation is repaying the money over a 15yr period.
Wrong again ee.
"Dooley also announced that Community Trust Bank has committed to a three-year sponsorship as the naming rights partner for the video board as well as becoming the official bank of Louisiana Tech Bulldog football.
"The video board is now a reality because of our partnership with LA Tech Sports Properties created by our contract with Learfield Sports," Dooley said. "This has allowed us to finance this board with new revenue from Community Trust Bank and our other many corporate sponsors." "
Learfield Sports is highly involved with the board.
-----------------------------------------------------
Just another example of the blind Tech fans reading into something what they want to see or hear rather than actual wording. You said "we are paying Leerfield back" and that is what prompted my response. Check the 8-10-09 CPA audit report done by Heard, McElroy & Vestal of Shreveport on the Louisiana Tech Foundation books. Page 10, explaining Notes Payable, reads "Line of credit payable to Community Trust Bank for construction of the football stadium video board, authorized limit of $2,000,250, interest at prime rate, payble in one payment of all outstanding principal and interest at maturity, matures 9-25-09, bank has committed to refinancing the outstanding balance upon maturity of line of credit, and therefore the debt is classified as long term. Terms of new loan include prime interest rate, payment schedule based on 15 years amortization, baloon payment of all remaining principal and interest due at maturity, mataures Sept 2014." NOWHERE, IN ANY FORM, is Leerfield mentioned in that note. That note was negotiated by Louisiana Tech Foundation and Community Trust Bank. La Tech Foundation borrowed the money, La Tech Foundation will pay it back. The line of credit was arranged for the construction of the board, the line of credit was converted to a note payable on 9-2-09 in amt of $2,050,000.
I said nothing of the sort.
Reading is fundamental.

We don't claim 44k. The I-Bowl reports the attendance. Need to ask them.

As far as Ruston JC goes why are they scared to play ULM in football ?? I'm hoping the rivalry re-emerges come 2012.
I don't see that happening. We have bigger fish to fry, like ULL, and Southern Miss.

I don't think the poster was talking about the scoreboard where you run your commercials and announcements. He was talking about the one that carries the score:

RE: ULM Will Add New Score Board for the 2011 Season
I'd like to consign this zombie thread to the smack board, but I don't want to be put on double secret probation as a result.
So I'll just be polite and ask that a friendly and helpful mod just toss this baby over there so that we don't have another return of the living thread.
Thx,

Shreveport supports the bowl regardless of who the participants are. It's wasn't a Tech "thang", it was just community support for the game.
