I'll reserve judgement of the bathrooms once completed, I mean of course these were gonna look k-stateo.  I'm still more pissed about the 10 yards of turf in the slide of death, that doesn't even match our BRAND NEW TURF.

End zones look like balls. Don't think I've ever seen something so blatantly shitty. Seems like a cheap fix though. Idunno

The east side restrooms will look fine. They're designed by people who know what they're doing. There's a rendering on kstatesports.com. Check it out.  It will look fine.

Transition between EZ and what is on the zone of death.  Completely different type of turf.  I suppose zone of death is old style.

i swear  :facepalm:


...And Steve Dave assured me they'd be the same.  Jesus rough ridin' Christ.  THIS LOOKS AWFUL.  If I center my eyes on the real part of the field then I can only kind of see it and then I pretend it's not there but I really know it's there.

And the K-Stateo/Sussudio thing was started by jmlynch1.


We are awful.  Why can't we have anything nice?

another endzone of death.  chill out guys. It doesn't look as bad in person as in the photos.




I came back here 5 minutes later so I could quote this and tell you that, yes, it does.  It's rough ridin' terrible.

It probably had to be different kinds of turf, because GameDayGrass is too thick and it would have caused a speed bump at the edge of the field and the Endzone Deathslide area.

Don't understand why they didn't try and match colors better, but like was said earlier, they'll say it was so there was some type of warning track.

I've heard they had to use the other turf due to the new improved super awesome turf being highly flammable @ k-state0 wants to keep k-state0 fans happy so they had to use the shittier turf in order to give the people what they wanted, a super rough ridin' awesome light show after the family reunion game

were you guys under the impression that there was ground on which to build the bathroom on the upper level?  Did you want a solid base layer of limestone taking up a bathroom sized footprint all the way to the top?  i would hate to be your home builder when you show up 2 months into construction and your house is just framed up.  prolly freak out and start throwing tools and crap.

Some of you who have consistent, secure employment; the work you do provides for yourselves and your families; and allows for generous charitable giving and some personal savings and intelligent investment, should reimburse Kansas State the few hundred dollars ($59-$224 range) that is generated from the harley auctions, so they will cease, and in addition provide a small monetary gift to the athletic program to extend the new turf in all directions, leaving no track.

Also, as a condition of your generosity, ask for an apology, for wasted time and effort, to all involved.

Not that it would change my mind, but I'd love to hear the reasoning behind the 2 differenct colors . . . what I don't want to hear is that they told them to put in whatever was the cheapest stuff. 

The company that did the installation puts in other brands of fields, so I am not even sure the endzone death slide area is an AstroTurf product.

Uh, Mr. Edwards I presume? Yes, my name is K. Stateo, I would like a bespoke suit made of your finest wool. Cost is no option. :dayspass: Ah yes, this suit should do fine Edwards. Oh what's this? The pant goes all the way to my heel. That simply won't do, I'm going to need you to hem this up about four inches. I like my ankles to breath. Thanks, Edwards.

It's like wearing ankle socks with a 3-piece suit.  I bet if you take off the suit coat you'll find suspenders AND a belt.
