Blackcats, where are you hearing Vanier 2.0 will go? feel free to mix numbers if needed, 5 is none-of-the-above.

5? Plus 1-4?

I've heard all of those, including 1+2. I honestly don't think it's been decided 100%.

Edit: I will say I've heard 4 less than 3 and 3 less than 1+2...but I just don't know yet.

Blackcats - just so I can pace myself...how are we lookin in terms of how fast they pull the trigger on this stuff?  Do they have a history of taking forever to make a decision?  Do big capital projects such as these frequently get moth balled or is it like "money is in, green means go, chainsaw boner"?

We pimped the WSC for like a year before announcing at the bowl game. Currie has been raising hard for about a year with the current project and about 3-5 months for vanier 3.0.

Has anyone figured up a ballpark Powercat/$million figure? Really need to know so we can figure out how many people we will have to squeeze $5-$20 out of to make it happen.

I wish they would have built it then we could say things like, "it's clear they're never going to be big time" and "they've given up on building high value outdoor seating".

EDIT: 8000!

Confirmed stud.  Confirmed that he's probably drunk in Aggieville.

I have a question about the personalized bricks that may or may not have been answered somewhere before.  is there like a map to find your brick or do you just have to look at all of them and hope you get lucky and find it?

No.

Edit: Maybe. Was I sitting at the bar? It's a little fuzzy.

If you were more scared than weird, then maybe. If you were the short dude that spilled a hot girls drink and couldn't stop apologizing, then that was me.

Edit two: not one drink was bought. I'm a little disappointed.

Guys, why have a beautiful $86.75 million dollar pressbox clad with majestic native Kansas Limestone when we could have had this authentic pre-fab concrete replica of a Nazi German Pillbox covering Omaha Beach or manning the Siegfried Line perched atop our stadium??

It's like an above ground version of Hitler's last days bunker in the bowels of Berlin circa 1945.
