Title: BSFS
Post by: kstatefan11 on August 14, 2007, 03:02:14 PM
Just drove by the stadium and saw a lift cart positioned up above the jumbo tron could they possibly be installing the new sound system?  I also saw boxes lined up the isle where the chairbacks are so i assume they are the new seats and are ready to be installed.  I am thinking about heading up there in the next hour or so for a jog, you know about the time practice starts so does any one want me to check anything out?

Jog over to ADTW's office and ask if that's a new sound system.

They are putting the new sound system on the South Videoboard (FYI Jumbotron is a Brandname, we no longer have a Sony Jumbotron) structure.

That's your heat index?  You guys need to visit ole Southeast Kansas and try out our humidity.  I think we might just have you beat.  Regardless the midwest does suck this time of year.   :yuck:

Kleenex is a brand name too, but that doesn't stop anyone. It's the freakin' jumbotron.

And is the new jumbotron the only thing getting a sound upgrade? The old crappy speakers on Vanier are staying? Because the static hiss from those will drown out any new speakers for sure, unless we trash them finally.

What's the scoop?

Yeah it does. Just miserable. Makes you understand why it's so much harder to recruit here than on the coasts...crapty summer and cold winters.

I asked my dad once why our ancestors were too freaking lazy to finish the trek to the west and felt it necessary to settle in this God-forsaken wilderness in the Midwest....I think there were three foot snowdrifts that day.  :lol:

I know where that place is. It's basically by the south endzone's concession stands row. So yeah, it would make sense to be a concession stand with a bathroom 30 feet from there.

There's no grass inside the stadium on the south end. If this really is in the southwest corner then it's outside of the stadium and just south of the walkway that runs along Bramlage to the east side. In the background of that picture it looks like the wall that's part of the walkway up to Bramlage.

You spoke of our video board as if we were going to enjoy it as if we were not already.

It could be the base for the new statue "A Salute to Ron Prince's Massive and Mighty Ego" where the eyes light up and the water lines are so he can piss on a midget sized Bill Callahan.  Who wouldn't want a giant statue of a coach that hott looking down over us, its better than touchdown Jesus
