Ok, so what is the secret ninja trick to viewing photos on libertyflames.com? I get to one or two pictures and then nothing else happens. I push play,pause,click on photos at bottom and nothing! I'm using a Mac, but I doubt that has anything to do with it. Anyone else have these troubles? I'm going to be really ticked if I can't view these photos on a daily basis whether it be at home on my Mac or at work on a PC.

Make sure you click on the link using "www". Otherwise in Firefox I was able to watch the video and see the pics just fine.

Thanks to the SIDs for getting that online.

Safari is working fine for me. I have a mac too. So not sure what the problem is....

[Cider Jim]

I drove by at about 4:45, and the heavy machines were taking "bites" out of the old press box. I reminded me of the "Cat scene" from The Grapes of Wrath. Gosh, I love that novel.

[Sly Fox]

Somehow Steinbeck didn't come to my mind as I watched the video. I love having a literary perspective on the board.

I haven't been able to view more than a few pictures in the slide shows since like 2 years ago. I remember it being brought up here before. I think we all decided to give up.

[El Scorcho]

Yep. I don't even bother with the slideshows anymore, which is shame. LU does a great job with photographic documentation.

Also: If we do all of this work on fancy new concessions at the bottom and come next season I still can't use a debit card to buy a hot dog... I'm not gonna be happy.

Pressbox is demolished!!! No more... looking forward to the building of the new one.

[goaliejake22]

I heard that with the new press box, if it is going to be 5 stories high like people said, it will go up to about where the lights are right now.. that is HUGE! =] that will be so cool if it does that

[tinytim]

That is true.

[SumItUp]

libertyflames.com's article about the demolition still lists the new press box as being three story.

It will be 5 stories.

[LUnpretty11]

3 tiers and as tall as the lights, yes.

[SumItUp]

1st floor - Concessions / Rest rooms
2nd floor - Hidden
3rd floor - Club room
4th floor - Suites
5th floor - AD, media, coaching boxes

5 floors, 3 active gameday floors

[LUconn]

hmmm, what goes on, on that 2nd level. Is that where the Masons will gather and run the world?

[jcmanson]

We're also adding 7,200 seats. That's a crap load of seats. I'm assuming each side of the Bill currently has 6,000 seats. So, the mid-deck and the four corner sections will be larger than one current side?

By hidden it means that you won't be able to see that level. Last I heard it was going to be used for academics. Don't know if that has changed or not.

[LUnpretty11]

How long ago did they change to 5 tiers?

[SuperJon]

A few months?

[LUnpretty11]

Last I had checked in around the middle of Nov. it was still 3, but hey, 5 is great! I like 5 better.

[jcmanson]

They didn't make an announcement about it. It just kinda changed one day.

[LUconn]

The ground can't actually support 5 levels with as soft as the clay is. It can technically only support 4 so that's why the one level is going to be hidden. Now as for why it's listed at 3, the city inspectors won't allow more than 3 for safety reasons. So officially it's only 3, but we'll be ok with an additional real level and a hidden 5th.

[LUnpretty11]

I was getting my info from the SID. Luconn, that makes sense.

[LUconn]

Never trust the SID, they rely mostly on rumors. Who do you think is doing the work study jobs to design this place? The students are where you need to go.
