Tad Pad Nostalgia

This photo gallery was posted earlier today on OleMissSports.com, showing off Tad Smith Coliseum's new floor design. It made us think of all the looks the Tad Pad floor has displayed since opening in 1966, so we have put them here for your viewing pleasure.

Feel free to let everyone know which is your favorite. I think I'm already partial to the new one. (Editor's note: the new floor design is navy blue, not black - it just looks that way because of the camera lighting.)
