BSFS Expansion Thread

[Sandstone Outcropping]

How excited are you guys to see the new bsfs expansion in person?  I know some of you have seen it but how excited are you to see it on a gameday?   

Oh man, I'm really excited!

It's going to look beautiful on tv Aug 30 on Fox Sports 1. It's going to look even better when I finally make it out for a game.

How excited are you guys to see the new bsfs expansion in person?  I know some of you have seen it but how excited are you to see it on a gameday?  Oh man, I'm really excited! 

When I first see it I'm going to be non stop talking about how awesome it looks and how big it is to my wife and she's going to say something about how it looks the same to her and I'll start to get mad because how could she think it was the same but then I'll remember that it's adorable how little she knows/cares about sports and I won't be mad and I'll just look at the stadium again and be so happy.

The thing is, I want to look at it from both sides.  I'll probably run in and out several times over the course of the game.  Maybe I should take a picture from outside before I go in?  Will a picture do it justice?  Should I buy that 41 megapixel Nokia?

I have a pretty good source (me) saying that a picture will not do it justice.

You know what would be great?! A time-lapse view of the outside of the west side starting before the game with the lots filling up through the game as the sun sets and the lights turn on, throughout the game and after the game as everyone leaves.  Emo EMAW will that Nokia do a time-lapse?

I have a GoPro (two actually) and I engineered auxiliary battery packs for time lapse!

Should be fun watching from Welch Ave Station in Ames.

For the record this is not the Nubb fan that I hit in the side with a full unopened beer as he was running across College ave.

Why would you do that?

Welch Ave. Station is a great place to hang b4 watching the cats steal another one from isu. Had great times there, multiple times.

I foresee the highlight of my weekend being at about 7:15pm on Friday evening, just standing on the field gazing up at the castle and then looking at the full stadium while taking in all the sights, sounds and smells of a college football saturday with all my bros just before the 'Cats run onto Wagner Field.
