New SDSU Football Stadium Site Plan

Re: New SDSU Football Stadium Site Plan

I sat next to one of our biggest donors at the Summit League tourney. He told me that the Luke Bryan concert was not the administration's first choice for an opening event. He rattled off just some of the events that were considered, but they couldn't make happen for one reason or another:

1. The Nutcracker on Field Turf.
2. The knighting ceremony of Sir T. Denny Sanford.
3. Meet the man who met Andy Griffith.
4. Trump v. Clinton debate billed as "The debate at the Dyke".
5. The premier of 30 for 30: The TOB story.
6. Meet and greet with Nidaros.
7. The Matt Zimmer dunk tank extravaganza.

FIXED IT. Why else would this major donor be talking to you?

I am eating lunch at my desk right now, I nearly spit my food on the computer when I read and laughed at that one!

30 minutes seems like way to much time for this. Maybe a 30 for 30 short. Say around 4:20.

What if I told people that this is not a smack thread?

Re: New SDSU Football Stadium Site Plan

Drove through Brookings this afternoon. The stadium really sticks out now, impressive to drive toward from Medary.
Also, it looks like they are finishing the Indoor Facity with a gray siding similar to that on the stadium exterior. Really ties the two buildings together.

Re: New SDSU Football Stadium Site Plan

Have changes been made to the exterior of the SJAC recently? (See JackrabbitGuy's post just above.) Any posters in Brookings who can give some explanation?

Re: New SDSU Football Stadium Site Plan

I drove by the other day and the SJAC hasn't changed from what I could tell.

Re: New SDSU Football Stadium Site Plan

Maybe I am rong but it looked like the dark gray "siding" below the windows on west side had a jagged and unfinished look. It made me think that perhaps they were adding something to tie together the look if the 2 structures. I wish I would have snapped a picture.

Re: New SDSU Football Stadium Site Plan

Update: I was looking at some online pics and I think I was wrong, but the material used for the west facing exterior of the upper levels for the stadium does match the material used on the SJAC below the windows.

Re: New SDSU Football Stadium Site Plan

Okay, could be the same material or color...I was just surprised to read that changes were being made to the SJAC. It sounds like nothing is being done to the SJAC but the materials going into the stadium may be matching. In any event, that stadium is looking very cool and I'm excited to see it finished.
