The inclusion of Post Malone and Jelly Roll in the Death Valley Live Stadium Series
highlights the growing trend of using sports venues for major entertainment events, which can significantly boost local economies. Such events attract large crowds, benefiting local businesses, hotels, and restaurants. For LSU, this initiative not only enhances the university's profile but also strengthens its ties with the community and local economic partners. The tour's success could set a precedent for future collaborations between sports and entertainment industries, potentially leading to more frequent and diverse events at similar venues across the country.
