No. They will continue to play their home games at BH this fall. 89Falcon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OlDawg Posted May 7 Report Share Posted May 7 42 minutes ago, Bigdog said: When did they start building? Late January. Groundbreaking was January 13. Of course, hurricane season will have a lot to do with the schedule as the school complex is less than a tenth of a mile from the bay. That’s also part of the expense. Much tougher building codes—which equals cost. It was sorely needed. Old Bulldog wouldn’t pass inspections any more. Plus, being able to host events should help with some of the maintenance budget costs. I wish they’d have been able to buy out the strip center next to the stadium for parking. But, my understanding is the owners wouldn’t sell at this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, I take it as just a rumor. I don’t really know & haven’t heard confirmation one way or the other. Seemed a little over a HC/AD pay grade to decide facility usage. But, I may be wrong. Wouldn’t be the first time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew328 Posted May 13 Report Share Posted May 13 La Porte only has 3 home games scheduled this year.....I've been told they'll probably play at Deer Park this year but they are really hoping the stadium may be ready to host at least one game this year OlDawg 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Separation Scientist Posted May 13 Report Share Posted May 13 Some said earlier here that hades would freeze over before DP would allow LP to use their stadium, and vice versa. Mr. Buddy Garrity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don’t see it (hosting) unless the field itself is ready and fans aren’t allowed yet. I could see the field itself being ready. Or, they could set up bleachers at the new auxiliary field I guess. I don’t think there’s a completion bonus big enough to push through a schedule of less than 12 months. Just getting the materials/scheduling space in the laydown yard is pushing it in that timeframe. For the cost involved, I don’t see the admin pushing schedule over quality control. LPISD is generally a pretty good steward of funds/deliverables. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

navydawg31 Posted May 14 Report Share Posted May 14 Maybe the field will be ready for LP to play bidistrict game at home 😉 OlDawg 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Separation Scientist Posted May 14 Report Share Posted May 14 That would be cool. LP could potentially host some other playoff games too. Looking forward to seeing the finished product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know some families of seniors are really hoping it’s good to go for their graduation as well. That—I think—is easily doable. Again, depending on hurricane season this year. I keep hearing a busier than normal year. Let’s all hope not. Mr. Buddy Garrity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
