Jerry Jones and the new Cowboys Stadium in Dallas might have the most gaudy luxury viewing area in football, but Kansas University is closing in.The best part about KU’s version of the luxury deck is that fans can actually watch the game from it, unlike the overflow area at Cowboys Stadium.
This season, KU’s Touchdown Club will receive a facelift that should provide one of the most unique gameday viewing opportunities in the Big 12 Conference, if not the country.Instead of just providing covered recliners and stools in the south end zone as has been the case for the past two seasons, the area below the giant, state-of-the-art scoreboard at Memorial Stadium now will feature a 60-by-20-foot enclosed, glass suite.
You can keep throwing money at a trailer park, but it's still a trailer park
If it were up to me, Wintz would be on a fan scholarship, full ride.
Academics is a stupid word.Academic schools are synonymous for being rich, powerful and exclusive, three things Kansas State is not. So when people throw the word "academics" around, that's really what they are referencing.
doc1 (anonymous) aka DocHolliday says…As being an ex-football coach in the collegiate level I'm telling you a big recruiting factor is facilities. When your facilities are nice kids will want to play for you. This is just a small building block in the whole picture. I'm glad they are putting so much effort into the football program. One day it will all pay off with a larger football experience. More tax revenue, visitors, local business flourishing ect ect ect. Sports = Prosperity for the whole community.

I'm picturing a bunch of squawks standing in a glass cage.
The new look is not the only thing about the Touchdown Club that’s changing. Prices are dropping, too.In the past, the recliner seats ran $2,650 each for a season ticket. This year, they’re down to $1,800 for the season. The cost to reserve the sport stools also has dropped, from $1,500 to $1,200. New to the area this season, thanks to the luxury suite that will sit behind and above the actual seats, is a standing-room-only option, which can be purchased at a price of $1,000 for the season.
God, those guys should just give up and add a chain link fence around the outside of the track. Add to the high school charm of the place.
