When this new stadium is jam packed, you won't even notice the "corners".
Exactly! I guess some people plan on hanging out in an empty stadium and acting like they could have made a more beautiful empty stadium.

Can you imagine, three, 3 and outs in a row for the D. The place is rocking and some dbag behind you says, look at the corner over there. it looks...

A more likely complaint will be how quite the west side is on 3rd and 3 as Mack digs his knuckles into the ground.

Say what you will about the lack of symmetry or cohesion inside, but Populous and the engineering consultants should be embarrassed.

This is an awful, sloppy detail that looks like it came from a TxDOT highway interchange. I hope there's a metal cap that will go around the top of that post to conceal the pipe connection.

...there's one of those every other column. They kind of pop out when you look up at the otherwise seamless canopy...

They could at least paint them the same color as the canopy.

TA never fails to deliver solid entertainment...

Pssssst....that brick you see...is not really bricks...they are panels that look like bricks...or brick-like! shhhhhh, don't tell anyone!

West Point, there's ridiculous *****ing and there's legit *****ing. Tholas is absolutely right, that's some garbage work right there, looks like they made a mistake and aren't fixing it the right way.

If you haven't looked at scotch's pictures, do so.

Pssssst ... those are real bricks. Did you not see the video showing how they manufacture those panels?

Is this awesome quirk also found on the east side, or is it just that much more quirky/unique/asymmetrical/awesome because it's only on West side?

I will admit that I love almost everything about the new stadium (except the exposed SEZ), and my first reaction to seeing this closeup picture was an eye roll. Then I looked at the larger view expecting the pipe to be so small that I couldn't even notice. **** me! It's all I see now when I look at the west facade. It's pretty bad when even Fitch cannot explain or defend it.

Or don't look at the canopy from the outside with binoculars.

Are these hidden by the press box structure on the east side?

The clusters are exposed inside the press box. No drainage pipes in there.

Those pipes are where they pump in the maroon coolaid. Relax...

Make sure they spray it with some of that color matched Flex Seal so it doesn't leak. Stuff looks great on TV.

Hilarious. First time that I've ever seen this. And it would work for any school. Bravo.

Did they even think about how the shadows of the goal posts might impact someone's sight-lines are precisely 16:32:44 ??

I actually do construction coordination for a living, and if that's your only *****, Populous and the everyone else involved did a pretty damn decent job. Getting everything in a building to fit just right and not cost a few extra million is not exactly easy, especially on a job like this.

The pipe isn't the worst thing in the world, I blame the idiot who took a close up pic for drawing attention to it.

Did they use a lighter brick color than Blue Bell Park?

It looks more tan and BBP looks more red.
