man they are really holding onto the idea that the Anderson complex is really nice. I supposed that's all you can do in their situation.

Well, you have to remember, "really nice" for a Jayhawk fan is quite different than "really nice" for K-Staters.  :kstategrad:

Your experiences create expectations and and understanding of words.

i'd argue KU's facility is nicer than ours based on what each program deserves

In their defense, I used the think that BSFS/Vanier was pretty nice.  It's easier to believe when you surround yourself with likeminded people.

Yes, I enjoy how the keeping referencing the fact that the Anderson Football Complex is 'world class' and that K-State just caught up with them with Vanier.

The simple facts are the Anderson Football Complex was/is a slightly newer, slightly larger version of old Vanier, that had a slightly more modern layout and a few nicer things than old Vanier had.    Like I've said before, comparing the current AFC to New Vanier is like comparing a two year old BMW 3 Series just off of lease, to a Bentley Mulsanne sitting on the show room floor.

I was thinking more along the lines of a Toyota Camry.

if you've forgotten how nice ku's world class facilities are, then i guess it's time that some of you rewatch this expose on them-

Is Anderson the one with the clipart guy? The one they built off-angle so as not to block the view of the stormwater retention pond? I'm not very good with KU names.
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.

At this point, calling KU and their facilities and afterthought is being pretty generous.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

The Anderson/Anschutz/Wagnon/Parrot complex is an absolute dump. After working on projects for my company on KU's campus, I have never been more proud at the facilities at KSU. I have stories for days on corners that were cut, code issues, safety violations, etc. from the athletic buildings at KU just because there wasn't money to do it right.

That's just newer than the clipart facility.  The grapes are just now catching up.

Holy crap, I'd never actually seen the inside of Anderson. I thought some of you where exaggerating, but it really is not good for brand new. There is absolutely no way to convince me that was a brand new facility and not renovations of some older, shittier building. I saw very little that was actually better than anything K-State had 10-15 years ago and other than the size of things, it seemed on par or worse than Wichita State.

I couldn't remember what part of the K-State complex I was reminded of when I saw the exposed cinder block walls, then it hit me...

Again, congrats to KU for building a slightly better version of old Vanier and then getting people to believe it was "state of the art".

When it comes to glossy brochure talking points, they're the best.

It was very :lol: every time he point out the "big screen tvs". I had never seen the inside of it before either, and now I can't help but feel sorry for all the delusional KU fans who think they are anywhere close to our level.

Anderson was built in mid-late 90s?

Sadly,  no. It opened in 2008. It just looks like it was built in the mid-90s.
