All hail the great Spirit Killer! Hail!

Heil!

Does anyone know if any pictures have been leaked of the inside of the concourses, concessions, etc?

Also, McGibblets, where you at bud? You're not helping my addiction of looking at Kyle pics...

I don't think there's been hardly anything done on the inside of the east side yet. I believe they're just preparing to start now. Also, I posted some pictures Sunday, in case you didn't see those. I need to be up in CS tonight, so there's a possibility I might be able to get some tonight, but I don't think I'll have any spare time until it's already dark

Serious question...

Will the 2nd and 3rd decks of the student section be torn down after this season and rebuilt to match up with the north and south zones? Right now, it's an eyesore how they don't match up, at least to me it is (insert black eye for administration/contractor/Kyle Field).

^nope

It looks rickity. Will it hold?

You won't notice when the stadium is full

Nope. It's gonna fall over

I probably missed it in this thread, but I'm still curious; are the Zone ramps going to stay intact or be completely closed in?



vs.

They're going to be closed in. You can see how on the lower picture you posted.

Excellent, seemed scaled down in the drawing but I figured it was just perspective. Thank you, sir.

How would they vent the enclosed ramps? Mech. $y$tem$?

No vents. We need to condition the 12th man olds (myself included) so they can be called upon to pass rush in the 4th.

so next offseason when they redo the west side, they're going to tear down, start from scratch right? So basically it'll be like the South endzone, erector set style?

Yeppers

You boys need to watch the cams a little better. The KYLE FIELD letters are going up, and btw they light up...

what are they doing on the 2nd deck east side, removing bleachers? also what are those two sets of stands there for?

I heard the letters are not even tornado rated.

I thought the same thing. Looks like someone made it with an erector set. For the amount we are spending I expected better. Should of just started from scratch

Lol, have any of y'all been there to see it yet? The tiny pictures on your computer screen in no way capture the enormity of the stadium or the supports. Just wait till the season, go down and see it, and be amazed.

Rickity my ass.

That's actually a good point. Every time I see people saying it doesn't look sturdy, or something of that nature, I laugh about it. I guess I'm over there all the time and realize that there's no way in hell that thing is ever coming down

Some of y'all need to look back through the pictures and realize that the "rickety" supports you see are pieces of steel that a grown man can fit inside.

I'm just glad my tickets aren't under the new jumbotron. That thing looks like it might get blown over at any minute. No swaying people. No swaying.

Just....quit. stop. Just stop it. It's insufferable. This is not the only stadium that uses steel as supports for its structure. Have you seen the supports that were already there under the decks on the east and west side? You can't be serious, this has to be a troll. You trollin? I really find it hard to believe that you don't think it has structural integrity. What would have been different had we started from scratch? You do realize the south endzone was started from scratch right? It would likely look very much the same from a structure standpoint. You ever been in a 10 story building? Ever ridden a rollercoaster? Ever been on an overpass or a tall bridge? Are you afraid to leave the house? Do you have a house or an apartment? Have you seen one of those being built? Come on man

Clearly, that picture shows the structure is supported by duct tape!

I'm saying we should have just built a new stadium and not bothered trying to fix up this one. I'm sorry, but the whole thing looks terrible. I know it will look better once it's finished, but we should have just started fresh with the amount we spent. Who wants to sit up high in the end zones? The zone was bad enough, now we took it up a notch. I know there is a sense to sentimentality with Kyle, but I'm just being a realist. Sorry, the truth hurts. Anyways, that my 2cents for what it's worth

As far as structural integrity- it just doesn't pass the eyeball test with me. I'm sure it's fine and the the calculations and **** check out, but it just doesn't seem right

Anyhow just my opinion

the truth apparently only hurts you and a few other drama queens...your feelings on the project are IRRELEVANT as this is how Kyle will be for another century...you'll be long dead when the next big event happens (sans a few small projects)

as far as passing the "eye ball test"...do you realize how stupid that sounds??? You looked on KF.com and made a structural determination....!!!
