This is that same one. And you're correct that it wasn't supposed to be finished until next year. However, with ags being ags, they made sure to have it done for this season

On a scale of shouting to blowing out your ear drums, how loud was it?

The first couple of shots were very light charges and were not as loud as the '02, which is still intensely loud from that distance. When they started firing the more powerful charges, it quickly went from loud to insane.

I've been around large caliber fire all my life, so I was not afraid to stand 100 feet down range and 45 degrees off center, but I really wish I had brought some ear protection.


I cannot imagine there being tailgating going on during the game right across the street.

any video of the insane loud ones?

The one I posted was something like 6 of 8. I didn't record the last couple. The microphone on my SLR clearly cannot pick up or represent how loud it really was.

Sexcellent

RIP EKG

I don't know why they had to kill the kid too.

I think most of us were expecting the new E. King Gill to show up on something like this truck



Still happy with what we got tho!

A white man with a statue the color of a black man, wrapped in white, and being hoisting by the neck.

There has got to be something wrong with this...


PC kidding aside, that looks better than I thought it would.

with the crew for size comparison, on top of the platform I think they nailed it. Gonna be huge in person.

Which one of these doofuses is you?

Just drove by. Statues are still wrapped. The yell leader statue is actually closer to the north east tower than the south east

Almost thought that was a shot of them removing the Joe Paterno statue at Penn St.

BBA would get a laugh/cry face from me had staff not called me racist and thereby putting me in a spot where in principal I could not continue to pay them for premium.

"I'm black and what are Sperry's?" - BBA.

Staph also called me a racist!!! Then banned me for a week!.... Maybe staph is the actual racist!!!

Damn Ian I aint mean to bring up old **** man

I was just looking through some stuff, and I just realized how poor the old Kyle field design was. The new layout looks so much better

It may look like a jig saw puzzle now but fill it with 106k fighting Texas Aggies all wearing maroon and it will be a seamless design!

Does anyone know why they didnt connect the Zone with the west and east sides when they built it?

The obvious answer would be because the zone is taller (and I believe steeper) than the east and west. Don't know why they didn't do the same height, but I'd guess it's because of capacity numbers

The Zone was basically just a copy of the end zone in Florida's stadium. Theirs is also not connected. I am not sure if ours did not connect because we copied Florida's, or if we copied Florida's end zone because we knew they could not connect due to some other issue.

Jesus...bigblack always hits it outta the park.

Teach us thy black one

Oh I see what it is now... It's a football field!

I love the scoreboard.

Is that an37"?

Y'all realize they're not done yet, right? I mean, there's a whole second phase to this deal. Kyle Field, that is.

Does anyone know where or if they are planning to put the past national/conference championships they used to have on the northwest corner?

I have problems with the misaligned section, in the south east corner. The concept rendering of kyle field shows it smoothed over, and it looks really nice though; this gives me hope!

Do you mean north east instead of south east? The north east corner is the real problem area. the south and east connects much smoother. Here's the best shot I've taken of the northeast. It was a tough situation to be put into for the architects, but considering everything else looks phenomenal, and there may not have been a better solution to this corner, it'll be fine

I like it. It makes the stident side look wedged in and cozy

So this is what they're doing until the statues are unvailed on the 3rd

Thanks for the updates
