I'm still a fan of the old Sioux Falls arena. If you haven't been in there lately the Skyforce have made a number of upgrades. I hope a new downtown 12,000 seat arena becomes a reality in Sioux Falls!

We are finishing up the mods for the scoreboard and displays. There will be replays available. One of the reasons for the delay was making sure the ceiling structure could hold the center hung. I will say this display is going to look very good.

wow, those are some impressive scoreboards. I didn't know that frost was getting updated also. Where are you bunnies getting the cash from? I hope you didn't auction off the Border Marker because we are going to need that delivered to Fargo on Nov. 12. ;D

I don't think these pics are doing the boards justice. I am coming tonight to check out the boards live---as well as the new teams. GO RABBITS!!

bisonmike, SDSU and Daktronics Sports Marketing (DSM) worked out the deal for the new scoreboards. SDSU will make the money from the advertising.

Re: MIDNIGHT MADNESS  FRIDAY OCT 14, 2005

Just got back from Midnight madness-2. The scoreboards are great, much better than they appear in the picutres. the boards along the ends above the seats are very impressive. I don't know exactly how they will be used in games. The pro-table wasn't on to night. But when you walk in it is very impressive.

This was my first midnight madness, but it seemed like a great crowd, more students than at many of the games last year.

Teams looked good. Others can probably give a better evalualtion.
