Can we raise 1 more million to put cushions on all the football seats. Just saying.

Is south stadium expanded seating included in this?

In lieu of expanded seating, they have budgeted for 20.000 Weight Watchers memberships for one year.

Better close in that southeast corner. Wind gusts could be wicked!!

 

[The_CornTorch]

Anyone know the architecture firm working on this project?

thats the north west corner but i agree. close it in but don't add capacity. It would be nice to fit in an assigned seat

I don't know who you've been sitting by, but everyone I've sat by seems to have plenty seat cushioning!

Shucks, no Warren Buffet speaker. $150M are pennies compared to Warren's wallet.

Absolutely understand and you are right, if you do it do it right the first time. My comments I guess were more along the lines of it would be nice to donate, say 75 million to the education endowment to kids maybe don't have to have such big loans when they graduate.

I am on the local school board and we are looking at finishing off a bond and then starting a new one without skipping a beat. And what we are looking at dollar wise seems like a lot but really doesn't get a lot. I guess though that is the difference between tax dollars and donated dollars.

Would love the academic side to get more. Life isn’t fair sometimes. One thing I’ve learned through time, a great athletic program leads to higher attendance some of which is out of state & eventually more funds w added prestige. Better the athletic programs, the more attendance, leading to more alumni & more donations on academic side particularly at the end of life. I think it’s a pretty direct relationship too in my opinion. I fully support what they’re doing.

Does this mean our house is officially in order?

Love it, but looks like the tunnel walk just got a little bit longer.

Maybe they'll just have to play the album cut of Sirius that fades into Eye In The Sky. I'd be okay with that.

Since you brought it up... I'm very biased to this version
