What if we just fill it in with dirt and use folding chairs? Seems like dirt would be pretty forgiving to the mismatched angles.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, K-State fans could have beheaded the entire KU team at midcourt, and K-State fans would be celebrating it this morning.  They are the ISIS of Big 12 fanbases.

why not build during the season if that is the hold up? i mean they rope that area off if it doesnt sell out anyways and now the NEZ is bigger?

 :dunno:

That ne corner is still the entrance/exit for emergency vehicles, equipment trucks, and harleys right?
yes it is, the plans show a tunnel being built for access.

right, so that's what prevents them from working on it during the season
lots of things. TV trucks park there, and as adjc said in not so many words they haven't even figured out how they are going to angle it


If they leave in those terrible student seats that extend 15 yards behind the back of the end zone, I WILL write John Currie an angry letter. :curse:

i posted pics 50ish pages ago with what the plan was, the overlap looks to remain except the shave it off on an angle. which as i pointed out back then will look very dumb

What are those rows that look like they are missing 1/2 their seats off one aisle 2/3 up the under deck?

Crazy to see how big Vanier 2.0 is compared to KU's state-of-the-art Anderson complex.  Also want to note that this Vanier 2.0 view does not reflect all the square footage below the stadium seats.

Football at ku is such a crap-show that they waste valuable parking area to maintain TWO shot put landings plus a javelin and hammer throw field.

Good Pics Karlen.

Whats the metal structure on top of Vanier 2.0? Is that for a ribbon board/scoreboard?

I think the south is fine, as long as we put up one of the worlds largest video boards. The east should be completely redone next (won't happen, but still).

But these grumblings on the NE corner scare me.

Improvements to the SEZ should definitely be the next phase, after finishing the NE corner. We don't need to add seats, but we should build permanent concessions and SRO areas up there plus new video board.

Ribbon board can hide hvac as well, but the rendos seem to lean towards just hiding hvac
