I hope they keep the setting in mind when making these decisions, I really do.

If they put the new Vanier on the North side, Arizona style, we're losing a lot of that view anyway.

BSFS has no view

You're right, we have a panoramic wonder. Guys, moving forward, will you please stop referring to our panoramic wonder as just a "view". TIA

Can't wait until they cut the new south video board in half, using it as a scoreboard, as well. Cause, you know, that's what they're used best for.

Is there a view for anyone not on the east side upper deck or the WSC. The bad person ticket office moved me from my donor seats to shitty non donor seats in the SEZ and I can't see crap but Vanier and that new walkway to the west of it.

Could it be someone didn't donate in time?  :dunno:

Well your dumbass clearly does not have donor seats. Renewals are due months before the donations, you rough ridin' idiot.

I had seats in section 3 for the NDSU game.  I was able to see a little bit between the WSC and Vanier.  If they put a videoboard in between WSC and Vanier, I wouldn't be able to see anything.

Hopefully the stat boards can be fixed before the Baylor game, that's the only immediate request I have.

I didn't see that. I was being hopeful based on Currie's letter from a couple weeks ago:

Quote
We apologize that our statistical "hustle boards" on the south end of the stadium were not operational for last week's game. Those boards were inadvertently damaged during construction of the WSC, and they are so old that spare parts are no longer in production.  Over the last several weeks one of our staff members has actually tracked down the long ago designer of the boards (who is now retired) and a potential temporary fix is in the works!


It is bizarre that Currie makes it sound like these boards were put in the 60s.

I hadn't given it much thought, but it would appear they were at least installed sometime after this photo (pre-Bramlage)
