BSFS Expansion Thread

[KITNfury]

I actually really like the terraces. It will give bsfs a unique look.

I know it won't be much and that's not what's driving the expansion, but how many seats will it add?

The new north stadium expansion will result in a much better game experience for fans located in this area due to better viewing angles and wide rows. The seating capacity impact has not yet been finalized, but we do not project a significant increase. Current plans show a total increase of approximately 1,000 seats. Our goals for this project are more about improving the fan experience and game atmosphere than increasing capacity.

looking at the renderings, gotta be less than a hundred

After the WSC, the powercat-to-available space ratio seems severely lacking.

[hippocraticoaf]

Looks pretty badass. 

My only beef is due to no player lounge.

Hmm... I can't find any on the floorplans they have up.

Maybe they're counting the Gatorade fuel bar, the team theater, and some locker room areas.

Currie talks a lot about the different priorities involved with this project (limestone wall, covering the harley track, etc.)

[kslim]

currie is in the booth with wyatt vision and stanbot

[TheHamburglar]

Is that the 16 goals backlit on the left as the come down the ramp?

 

[jmlynch1]

Any word on construction cams? I have been way too productive at work lately.

Are you just talking about this or is there another video?  I don't know anything about GOT.

I like how they edited a sound clip of Musburger calling a Waters-to-Lockett TD catch over video of Lockett catching a TD pass from Klein against KU. 

I also like how they use the audio of Jordy catching the TD pass against Talib while showing video of a fly over, then when the audio gets to right after he scores, they show video of Jordy celebrating a different TD pass from a different season so they could use video of him celebrating with a teammate and not use video with RP jerseys.

I had to listen to the game on KStateHDTV as I was stuck out in SWKs.    The connection would start and stop continually so I missed some good info.   Sounded like old Vanier would be up for use for a time during construction.    If that's true then the team can use the current weight room until they can get into new Vanier.   Is this true or did I miss something.

Yeah, I noticed that they specifically picked out the highlights against ku too, but really, when there are so many highlights against them, it's hard not to pick a few, I'm just surprised they didn't include any highlights against Texas (our real rival)

I think you missed something, watch this
Currie talks about using the indoor practice facility as a weight room

[DQ12]

Favorite part:

....travelers from afar....

[60scat]

Thanks, I was wondering about weight room etc.    Also, one pic I saw looked like green turf side to side.   Are we doing away with Harley Day?

[chunkles]

Glad you dudes enjoyed the show.

Maybe they're counting the Gatorade fuel bar, the team theater, and some locker room areas.

In the floor plans that were leaked there was a very large player lounge under the new seats in the furthest South section of Vanier. So in this image where you see seating there's a player lounge underneath it.

If you look in the bottom left corner of the home team locker room you'll see a door going to nowhere, this is the entrance to the player lounge that's under the seating area.

I don't know, I think that is just circulation corridor, look at the section, it's taken through the locker room:





unless the player lounge steps down below the finish floor level, there wouldn't be much head height.

They better not wait until 2017 to finish the rough ridin' NE corner...
