Really looking forward to the discussions based on webcam viewing, particularly on the Bash:

"I just don't understand why they did those footings that way, if I were running that job . . . "

"I only counted 14 guys on the webcam, I just don't see how you can get a job done . . . "

"Its moisture barrier, if you don't put up right you've got big problems done the line"

Don't know. Winner was apparently from Ottawa, which makes it more likely that they're EMAJ, right? Or maybe EMAI? Maybe the $5M is from oscar Weber as a thank-you gift for saving his ass.

EMOU EMAB, Ottawa is a university town after all.
FYP, LOUIQ :nono:

BTW, Ottawa's pretty divided probably about the KC ratio of EMAJ/EMAW so there is the possibility

According to some fellow state of Kansas fans(They prefer the Jayhawks) the winner was a teacher who was in a frat at KU. They were speculating on how much he would donate to said frat. All rumors though.

'nother picture.

Anybody notice the little scoreboards above the glass enclosure???   :emawkid:
Whoa!  Could those be for other big 12 games???
Definitely look like "games of interest" boards to me

Phase 3 video and ribbon boards.   Having used Sketchup, I almost guarantee they set the same skin texture for both in the model, thats why they both have guest and home.    Bet this ends up a video board like @Sprint Center that is multi-purpose

In IRL that thing will be displaying ribbons of animated Briggs and Cenex logos 90% of the time.

If I were AD I would sell advertising space ON THE RENDERINGS.

Yeah. Someone who lives nearby or works at Bramlage or whatever should do that "take a picture from the same place every day" thing for the duration of this project and then make a video that shows each picture really fast in succession so it looks like the press box was built all quick and junk. Would be v. cool.

Cranes were for the BPF.  They were putting giant HVAC stuff on the roof today.  They had three going at one point.

I don't think they are putting any equipment on the roof. It would be too visible and would just be an eyesore if they screened it.

Anyone who wants to go take a picture of the BBPF as it is now and post it here would certainly be welcomed in this thread.

Vertically moving Farrar ads with the red molten metal flowing out.  Tractors driving across the ribbon when we enter the Case-IH red zone.

Looking forward to the groundbreaking on easily the most expensive and largest self funded athletic facilities project in Kansas Board of Regents School history.     :ksu:

Dwarfing all other self funded athletic projects at Kansas Regents schools that came before it.
