Perhaps we could have Lego make it and pay for it out of lego blocks. A full stadium made of plastic. Four years seems like a long time, but I am ready to pay a one time fee for my two seat licenses to help pay for the thing (10,000 @ $2,000 each is 20 million) - maybe those guys who buy all the season tickets but never show up will also pay for seat license donations?Go Bulls!

I think they got 15 million alone for the stadium name. Go Bulls! from http://www.tulanegreenwave.com/facilities/yulman-naming-opportunities.html Home Field Advantage & Capital Giving Tulane University is fully committed to building a nationally renowned football program and the leadership, from the Board of Trustees to the President and Director of Athletics, has taken aggressive action to ensure success in this endeavor. The salary pool for the football coaching staff has been significantly increased, the football budget has grown in order to enhance our recruiting efforts and provide the very best for our current football student-athletes, and we will soon have a true "Home Field Advantage" with a state-of-the-art on-campus stadium.Tulane University is embarking on an aggressive fundraising campaign in order to usher in a new era of success for its athletics programs and has launched a $70M Home Field Advantage Campaign.The Home Field Advantage Campaign provides donors, season ticket holders, athletics fans, Tulane alumni, parents and students, and the community at large with a facility offering exceptional fan amenities - on the Uptown campus of Tulane University. Additionally, the campaign will provide increased resources for all athletics programs.In addition, the Tulane Athletics Fund (TAF) has an aggressive campaign goal of $5M over three fiscal years. Any unrestricted gift to the Home Field Advantage Campaign that is not designated specifically to Yulman Stadium will be a part of the Tulane Athletics Fund.GeneralYulman StadiumSOLDBenson Field SOLDJill H. and Avram A.

Matt Grothe @Mgrothe8 18h18 hours ago@TheReelKnight 45 and fully expandable. And plz. We all saw your 2500 announced crowd the other night.
