Was the press up there last season?

I love Kyle Field architecture porn!
quote:This GIF does a great job of showing how much closer to the field the west side 2nd deck is. Nicely done!
Como se dice "loud"?
Fade from 2013 to 2015 with the 2014 field 'shopped in
Shows the shift and lowering of the field.
quote:No. The box was there but it was not used. It may have not been 100% finished out prior to the start of the season.

Are they still planning on putting the Kyle Field letters on the north end zone facade?
Yesterday...

It may be closer than that even.
That gif uses the field from 2014 and the wall on the west side that was about where the new wall will be for accuracy. There was another pic/gif out there that made the field appear larger than it actually is, which in turn made the stands appear even closer.
I don't mind the deck symmetry issue much... but the offset between the ribbon boards might drive me a bit insane.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
Irrigation pipe? Yes or no?
Never saw a clear statement about whether or not the drainage infrastructure had to be replaced. Even if so, this looks like the textbook size trench and trencher used for irrigation....in my opinion that is. If not, what is it?
I wonder if Leo is ready to crack skulls to get his field back.
Last year's irrigation and drainage setup was strictly temporary.

Those brown circles look like cow patties...
What renovations aside from the exterior are being done to the NEZ? concourse remodels concession remodels? Anything internal?

Longer rows (more people to crawl over)... that's about it.
Did they ever find the typewriter?
It is (directly) none of my business, but the seats in the stands look like they're made of aluminum -- or something -- instead of dependable, durable and attractive pig iron.
A further casual perusal of the stadium pictures indicates a number of opportunities for the always appropriate employment of concrete have been inexplicably wasted.
In point of actual fact, a study of the Roman Coliseum in the first instance would have made apparent the superfluous nature of all "improvements" except something to sit on and someplace to take a number two.

Where exactly on the West side will the TV cameras be located ?
I have also been curious about the TV camera placement. Imho I've always thought we had one of the worst views from the TV audience perspective because it looked like it was being shot from an airplane. The lighting was even worse years ago. It doesn't bother me since I'm at all home games, but I like to have a good viewing angle when I'm watching the recordings of us kicking tail
seriously though, was ESPN or others brought in to look at this and find optimal placement (not in fans way)for a camera? I wonder if there will be enough room for the truck mounted ones with the stands being closer. Just curious

The middle windows just below the center of the third deck. Three center suites for media and the outer windows will be coaches boxes IIRC.

Why go to that trouble when it could be answered here?

And the little escalators in both north corners...and the lettermen's museum

If only there were 41,000 posts in this thread instead of 4,100, so that we could spend 10 days looking for the answer instead of just one.
I'm sure the new stadium looks like crap compared to your apartment
quote:Well, it is.
The stadium looks piecemealed.
BDS, yes. DKR, no, hell no, not even close.
Best SEC stadium is Sanford, for many reasons.

I'd still put Bryant-Denny and DKR a notch ahead
DKKKR is for caulk holsters and Caitlyn Jenners. I hope you are neither...
It absolutely blows my mind how much everyone complains. Everyone complained that old Kyle was outdated and smelled like bat crap, and we need a new stadium, ours isn't big enough. Now we completely renovate the stadium, and oh it looks like crap, oh it's not symmetrical, wah wah wah. I guarantee we could've spent $1 billion on it and had gold toilets and people would still complain. The stadium is absolutely beautiful, and will be one of, if not the nicest stadiums in the country. So quit your whining and appreciate the great new, but still old and full of tradition, stadium we have now.
