Athletics Department: Student party section nearing completion

With 72 hours until kickoff, the Magnolia Rental and Sales crew continues to install the student party sections in Vaught-Hemingway Stadium.

Gil Bridges, owner of Magnolia Rental and Sales, said the company providing the tents for the student party area, said the crew will be on a tight deadline for the home opener this weekend as they’ve only had a few weeks to plan and build the section. The company still yet to install tent covers and install cooling fans, televisions and charging stations around 5 p.m. on Wednesday.

Ole Miss’s push to improve fan experience in Vaught-Hemingway Stadium in response to falling season and student ticket sales has been a long and complicated one for the university.
