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 Everyone complained that old Kyle was outdated and smelled like bat crap, and we need a new stadium, ours isn't big enough.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 unicorns to fart on our hands as blow dryers 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.

"Hate barn" was and still is the worst nickname for a stadium. Helps with the hillbilly stereotype too.

Well, it is.
Agree. However, local economics forced the re-development of KF vs. building new. Moreover, they did he best they could. We are lucky to have such a nice facility; learn to appreciate the improvements.

I keep checking back here for pictures and all I find is the same old discussions about symmetry, what is an activation tower, were are the TV cameras going to located, etc.

Would really like to see some pictures of the new north zone and plaza area, even the NW Activation tower since those areas are out of the construction cams range. Thanks in advance for those that take the time to take and post photos.

I'd still put Bryant-Denny and DKR a notch ahead
you do realize that DKR looks far more "piecemealed" than Kyle, right? From the Alum side it looks like you should be watching tennis. It's an ugly squarish POS on the inside.

DKR is a very nice stadium

I should clarify.

It's the shape of the interior that makes me call it a POS. The exterior and finish out on DKR is plenty nice.

Deal with the stadium and the way it looks because you, your progeny and your progeny's progeny will be long dead before any significant changes takes place at 'ol Kyle again!

I think so too, but it is piecemealed. Of course, most large college football stadiums are.

5.) Kyle Field
6.) Alamo Dome
7.) Orange Bowl

I have been to several games at DKR... Even sat in a luxury box at one game. It might have been head and shoulders above old Kyle, but DKR is not even in the same discussion as renovated Kyle Field.

1. It's very pretty, but a truly awful place to watch football. Especially college football.
2. Yes, no argument.
3. Again, NRG is a nice place, but not for college football.
4. The only thing I like about DKR is that you can easily move down to better seats as the game progresses.
5. Five seems about right for the old stadium. Piecemealed or not, the new stadium is going to be an awesome place to witness CFB. The interior look has grown on me, and I think none of it will matter when it is packed with 102,512.
6. Seriously?
7. C'mon man! Do you really mean the old Orange Bowl? I can only guess that this is number 7 because you have only been to 7 stadiums.

Of course, this is just my opinion. I like character in a CFB stadium (Orange Bowl does have some of that), and atmosphere is huge (This is likely the number 1 reason I dislike DKR so much). New Kyle will have plenty of both.

It looks like they are preparing to open this pathway to get back to the original 12th Man Foundation office entry as well as the new Letterman's Lounge entrance.

I found a new article a few weeks ago (Austin paper, ironically) that said they playing surface would be going in July 1st. And yes, I know it is July 2nd that the construction cams still show dirt.
