What are those things there putting down on top of the sand next to those concrete things on the South cam?

I can't see the cameras at work but enjoyed this question

Ball bearings? I don't know, but I thought it was all ball bearings these days.

my guess would be a controlled linear charge demolition.   They will blow out the columns causing it to rotate over on it's back.

*edit*  like what captaincrap said.

When do tickets go on sale for that crap?
If JC is half the money man he is reported to be, this should happen. If the video only has 10 people standing around then we just wasted an opportunity to raise and additional $500k or so.
Do a raffle for 20 or so lucky fans to be in a safety enclosed box about 20 feet from ground zero. Additionally, could easily fill up the east half of the stadium at $10 a pop. Then, with the old bleachers, put them at the edge of the parking lot and charge $10 a pop. Get a permit to sell alcohol for the day and you could make a cool million pretty easy.

Yes. It is a badge of honor. At my real job, I am always asked, "Hey dobber, we are going to have a little brainstorming session on <whatever>, when would you be able to join us?" They never use my ideas. What I think happens is that after I leave the room, everyone else sets around looking at each other saying, "Holy eff, what is up with dobber?!"

One of these times I am going to come with an idea "that is just so crazy it just. might. work." Actually, I am hoping that happened today. I met with a dude who works for the Military. He was all excited that I was countering his wacky ideas with my own wacky ideas. It was pretty great. If I could tell you the details, it would have to be in the Kstate0 thread.

Nuts?? Please. 

I'm totally going to take that day off from work when they demolish the Dev.  If they won't let people sit in the east seats, then I'll just have to park at Mercy or University commons and watch from there.

It will be GLORIOUS!

Looks like someone or something knocked over the North cam. We may get a little look at practice if no one notices it for a while. Shhh....

Yes.   Normall on a building you would put foam insulation board on the inside of the perimeter footing.   This helps maintain warmer temperatures under the slab and prevents the ground from freezing and making the slab move.    Since this building does not have perimeter footings, you have to insulate the underside of the slab instead.
