Thanks for the pics.

I thought we were putting those castley things at the top of the tower (see gallery page exterior renderings  link below).Is that not happening now? I kind of liked those. Either way it's a home run.

Which are all incorporated in the design of our stadium:

Sticks


Stone

Me too, and the 2012 season provided us with so many highlights to add to that.  I'm really looking forward to seeing AB's pick six against Tech in next year's Proud of This House video.

Will we be able to see him?  :dunno:

That 2.7mil we dropped on the rowing hut could have gotten us a sweet limestone field wall.

And we should totally throw down some limestone pavers over the asphalt around the field for complete effect.

What would you call those things?  Ramparts?  Maybe they were removed to people could see Willie leading chants from up top.  Then again, I kind of like the opportunities they provided for concealing snipers/archers.

I dunno, I think we may still so those ramparty things up on top when they completely clad the towers in limestone.  They're not structural, so that's probably why we don't see any support structure for them.   :dunno:   

Wouldn't be a castle without those things.

The actual openings are crennelations. The overall top of each tower would be a battlement. The purpose of crennelations is to allow our defenders shelter whilst shooting arrows, slinging rocks, and/or pouring hot oil on the field. :gocho:
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.
