with some of our elders, it's not an out of shape issue, it's an out of youth issue. don't mock them.

The stairs really don't look much more severe than they were before.

If people are worried about walking up that, they need to take the stairs more often at work.
Yeah I assumed he was talking about people who are past working age.

That statement worries me a bit since those are two small flights of stairs. If people are worried about walking up that, they need to take the stairs more often at work.
You guys honestly believe in 2012 we will not build a stadium that meets disability act requirements? You do realize building code, plan approval, and inspections all require disabled persons access yes?
Concourse is at the same level as before.
Two elevators have been added.
No worries.

This discussion just proves that people will b*tch about ANYTHING.
Stairs? Freaking stairs? Seriously, we have a brand new, incredible baseball stadium and people are worried about STAIRS?

people are worried about STAIRS?
Sure wish the season would start so we'd have something better to make threads about.
OH MY GOD ITS SO PRETTY!!

It also goes to show how little the general public know about the architecture/engineering/construction process.
Yeah, we're going to design a new stadium without access for the less-mobile of our population.
watch, someone will walk up to the front entry Friday afternoon after not seeing any construction pics and say "whats with the reddish brick, I like the tan!" I will then walk by and punch them in the balls! And thats what we're going to do to them Ags.
BTHO icu flames!

I bet at least one person gets there and says, "What'd they do to Olsen?"
Brad, if someone does say that then their ticket should be handed over and given to a deserving Ag

I'm so sorry to have offended you. I have a bad knee. Those stairs looked steep to me. I was merely wondering about other options for getting into the stadium. Forgive me for focusing on something that is important to me regardless of how nice the new stadium is. A thousand pardons.
Wow, looks like this is going down to the wire.

They were hauling in the bleachers while I stopped by. There have put in some seat brackets.

Thats what the area out in right field is for.
He'll roll down the hill!
You people don't think we do a renovation like this and have it ADA compliant? It ha to be. Heck look at all the handicap seating. I bet that also comes with access.
Wow, that is amazing. I can't believe A&M has something like this!
Gig 'em!

You must not have visited many other schools or must compare everything only to the sips...A&M, you should know, now has some of the best (overall) athletic facilities in the nation...that's even with Kyle needing so much work!
captDan, yall uplighting the columns?
just curious the reason for using the pavestone retaining wall instead of just concrete? Drainage?
Thank you for all the updates over the past 8 months.

No uplights on the columns. There will be several walkway lights and parking lot lights.
The berm walls were a cost saving measure. Despite everyone saying "why did you cut cost there?" there were many things that did not get done because we didn't have the money. Some things were approved later when extra funds were identified. We could have easily spent $30 million if we had it.

Couldn't we all?
just saw the replica that got sent out. with the angle/location of the berms(if the replica is accurate), what are we calling on over/under for people getting tagged with line drives?
Wait ...
They've started construction?!? I thought that was next off-season.
