Cajun Field Construction

But why not have the press box on the west side. When the sun hits the east side at sunset, no one in the press box will be able to see the field. Not sure what they are thinking here.

Tinted windows should fix that.

There’s a lot of stadiums with red seats. Pro and college.

With lots of money too to keep them red

[Million$Mullet]

I could be wrong but I don’t think the entire west side will be chair back.

[Big Buds]

That work years ago because cameras weren’t HD. Now it would look just like empty multicolored seats

I’m not suggesting it will look like people. It will blend in with the crowd much better than the current shiny aluminum. Minnesota for example had maroon and gold throughout their stadium seats. It looked great in person and on TV.

I like how their seats were painted to spell Minnesota. I also like how Colorado has its name above the endzone. Something like that would look better than the UL we now have. If we are going to keep a daycare center in the NEZ, please put artificial turf as well.

Oh my God could you imagine how fast those kids would slide into that fence on artificial turf?

Make it happen

Don’t think tinted windows would help much, but maybe they can make it work. I like the whole idea of making it look symmetrical (finally) by having equal-sized east-west towers, but can’t they put everything in the east as mentioned, except put the PB in the west tower?

They aren’t worried about accommodating the press, they’re worried about accommodating their top donors

PB does not generate $$$ to pay for the upgrade of the west side. Non-generating facilities will be on the east side.

Are they eventually demo’ing the east side (student/visitor side) restrooms & concessions to build a new structure?

Fast as you can say “Get Gordon!”

Yes. The east side is phase 2 as I understand it.

[ZoomZoom]

Yes. The east side is phase 2 as I understand it.

Would think the east side would be completed/well underway before the west side is demoed since got to have a press box/PA system.

Temporary press box accommodations will be on the east side next season.
