Perfect, that takes approximately 2 beers per my estimations. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This upsets me, haha. I have driven by the stadium numerous times however have never had a reason to go in, it is a nice stadium, but would love to leave them in my rear view mirror.

It looks okay, but I guess I expected a bit more for $300m+. The seating areas look fine. Perceived drawbacks from 1 rendering... Metal supports do look really cheap (and almost unstable but I'm sure only the best structural engineers were involved). No concourses to mill about and still be able to see the field - unless that rooftop area in the east endzone works for that but they don't show any fake people on it. Thinking the concession areas are going to look a lot like UCF (wide open with lots of metal poles around). Would prefer a closed in Tulane type look for that. And assuming a home side season ticket is going to be double what they cost now, expecting a shaded seat for even nooners is not unreasonable. Also agree with others that it must be able to hold the largest possible pitch for soccer as a rental revenue generator. Let's be honest, if this single rendering was released by UCF or any of our current conference mates, we would all be saying "looks cheap like the new soccer stadiums going up, we're going to build something way better". All that being said, let's do this and GO BULLS! VPMK said the concourse would be open to the field in between the lower and upper sections to have view of the field and the game.

I called it was going to pushed back originally and people said no it would be opening for the 2026 season. I wonder why there is a delay ?

Probably calculating the people whining about shade in the design vs the cost? Maybe wanted to fully explore all options. Just guessing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
