SB can we also dig a little deeper into this neighbor issue? I mean, my dream basically forever since I was born was to have a house next to a stadium, like in Wrigleyville. Who wouldn't want that? And we're talking what, 7 home games a year? Probably only 3 of them will be night games? Some people ya know?

i would be more pissed at the 11am games than the night games.  let me sleep assholes!

They're rich snobs, CF3. It's basically Ward Parkway of New Orleans and it backs up right to their backyards and they're not happy. But it's like, HEY. You bought a house that already backs up to a college campus, I mean what did you expect? Gtfooh. They even griped at City Hall meetings to the point that they strong-armed the negotiations so that, in order to have it built, they can ONLY have Tulane football games there. No soccer games ever!!! No monster truck rallies!!! And don't you rough ridin' dare even dream of having a concert there!!!!!!!!

That's because they knew it would look hideous.If they would have built BSFS in their backyard they would all want to turn their houses around so they could have it in their front yard.

As recently as 1983, Ga Tech's stadium still had a track and the endzone was in the shape of a horseshoe. There is still hope for KU yet.



Based on today's news, I have no choice but to conclude that I have finally mastered the ability to see the future. You may all bow down now.

I'm guessing the duct work is for trash, scrap, etc removal during the construction and won't be there forevs.

Oh man. I would love to throw a bunch of big trash down that chute thingy and listen to it until it hit the dumpster.

So are they getting rid of the huge upper deck on the pressbox side and replacing it with two smaller decks?  If that is the case, their total capacity might not change too much even after they enclose the two open corners.

Looks like they'll be losing a bit off the top of the endzone bleachers, too.

Yea capacity isn't changing. Losing some height and seats off the SEZ and losing some seats from adding chairbacks to certain sections. The new Suites will keep capacity the same.

There's going to be a jumbotron running the partial length of the wall thats comparable in size to most stadiums jumbotrons. The new jumbotron in the SEZ, that was added in 2008 is getting replaced. The new SEZ tron will be the biggest in college football when built.

Did you guys know Akron has had a new stade since 2009? I didn't.  :Wha:

Copy and paste isn't working for me for some ridiculous reason so just google InfoCision Stadium (lol).

Oh and while you're at it, just go ahead and google their old place too, the Rubber Bowl (double lol).

I think this qualifies now:

I was just out in Tempe and was told by a buddy out there that State Farm has paid Arizona State an obscene amount of money to have them open the bowl on Sun Devil Stadium so that there is a clear view of the field from their new regional headquarters that they are building across the street. They are losing about 6000 seats for this.

Well they never really needed that many in the first place, so I'm okay with it I guess. As long as it still has permanent bleachers on all four sides and at least one upper deck, it will still be big timey.

Yeah you gotta remember, that stadium used to host the NFL Cardinals and the Fiesta Bowl, and now totally doesn't, so it makes sense to reduce capacity
