BSFS Expansion Thread

[SdK]

Hahahaha that too!

[Big Sam]

Is that a concrete block tarp?

Also, I bit disappointed that the insets are indeed section numbers.  Wish they were powercats.

Or Powercats with the section numbers inside the Powercat.  Would have been sweet.

Apparently John-boy knew he was on the way out and said "F it!  Don't need no more Powercats."  Another failure of his tenure as A.D.

I'm fine with painted CMU. It's the horrible black exposed hinges on the gates that are getting me spun up.

[MakeItRain]

Are there no spaces in the wall for electronic ad boards?

[Dr Rick Daris]

Why in gods name are we putting section numbers on the field side of the bottom wall?

that way it is easier to find your loved one on the television

Wgaf about the back? Good grief.

Shitloads of visiting fans who will undoubtedly make fun of our K-State0ness on twitter

Here's a thought.   It's not done yet.

The horror

[SkinnyBenny]

That's fine. I'm sure if they do some paint/whatever on the back it will look fine. Certainly you can't blame me though for being nervous that we'd do 85% of a stadium renovation project awesome and then hotdog the rest. We have a history.

I think they're trying to go for the country club feel where you get a fancy locker with a nice engraved nameplate on it.

[mocat]

You'd definitely want the inside face of the wall to be smooth, it will look fine

[Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)]

Inside of the wall needs cup holders and electric outlets. Can finish the rest with glass shards

[Dr Rick Daris]

I'm fine with the inside of the wall. I'm sure they'll make it look better than it does right now. I still don't get why we need section numbers in those locations. That decision was obviously made by someone who spends a decent amount of time on the field which isn't the case for 99% of people at the stadium. So congrats AD dept people. All twelve of you will always know which section is which.

It will be fine Skinny. And honestly I only care how it looks on TV. I'm ok with other teams skinny bennies hating on their blog sites.

And if we defend home field. Stadium smack won't matter.

I know it's a special thing for you and hope that they paint to match.

[Dugout DickStone]

Dirt legs will out their feet up on it, paint it

[The Big Train]

I thought the wall looked v good at the game yesterday

Maybe we will do a nice subway tile backsplash over the cinderblock. I think it would really tie the whole stadium together.

[cfbandyman]

I always thought the numbers on the field side were more for stadium personnel/emergency crews to better identify when on the field where they need to go. Doesn't hurt to have that extra bit of info.

Also, DGAF about the back of it. The wall was always supposed to be to help make the stadium look better from the field for TV and for the the people on the field, not the field from the stands, and when you have people sitting in a game, literally the only people who will notice will be those right freaking there. If they paint it a matching color on the back, you'd really not notice it until you literally sat there, and after all how goddamn often will you be looking at the back of a wall when a rough ridin' game is going on. For Christ's sake I half forget we have a cruise ship of a awesome pressbox next to our stadium during the game cause I have very little reason to look up towards it, and I love our WSC.

[star seed 7]

This really is the stupidest renobenny meltdown oat

[SkinnyBenny]

Only will be a renobenny meltdown if they don't paint it

[star seed 7]

Agree with puni, the hinges not matching the gates is the wtf portion of the wall. The gates should be black w/ purple cats, jmho

[MakeItRain]

There is?

But we've always had section numbers that face the field    I can't think of a stadium or arena that doesn't. Normally those section numbers are on a wall above the seating area, like in Bramlage, but BSFS doesn't have a wall. I suppose they could put the section numbers on posts above the sections, I've seen that before too.

[Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)]

It's an ADA requirement to have section numbers on the wall.
