anyone notice anything odd about this picture? Did they have to do that and paste it on the cover of the Liberty Journal? Its not even done that good. So many random mistakes

Like why in the heck did we put a jumbo tron IN FRONT of our BIGGER jumbo tron which happens to be showing a football game during graduation?

What school did we just rip off by stealing their press box and putting it behind our seats that arent even done yet.

Come on...

The jumbo tron is from an actual photo. They use that for Graduation.

did they pull some of that from an actual photo of a different stadium and merge the 2? The details in the bottom left corner look pretty realistic.

Obviously, someone has returned from the future with a pic from the 2020 graduation. Stop being obtuse. Embrace the vision.

does half of the press box implode in the future? Because that one looks like it goes from 40 to 40. Maybe it was like some kind of townie jihad that took it down. Backlash from a future taping incident.

That's an impressive Photoshop job in my opinion.

Some people will whine about anything no matter how trivial. I call it Youth Pastor Syndrome.

I thought I saw BJ in his cap and gown (again) getting his seminary degree. Study

What did Kevin Costner say in A Field of Dreams? "If you Photoshop it, they will come." :shock:

I know the stand up jumbo tron is, the other one wasnt quite ready last year though, they had only announced it the month before graduation. I doubt this year we will have two.

Ironic that I have medical records up on my other screen right now where someone really does believe they see dead people.

a little too many pink shirts on the student side. As if they had accidentally stuck their reds in the wash with their whites. or yellows.

I had actually assumed that the stadium part was a computer rendering, which is why I said that the stuff in the bottom corner looked realistic. I guess that's because it is real, at some other stadium.

We've been doing this sort of thing for a very long time now.

Never ceases to be hilarious. Hilarious in a way that makes me laugh and follow it up with a sigh.

I'm a little surprised that someone thought it was a good idea to use anything associated with Iowa State Football as a blueprint… even if it’s just to form this hypothetical merged stadium of LU and ISU …as LU has had more success with football at the FBS level then ISU has :shock:

That is one of only two Big XII stadiums where I haven't covered a game ... oddly Memorial Stadium in Lincoln is the other. Based on that crowd, I can quickly narrow down who the Cyclones' opponent must be:

1. Iowa Hawkeyes
2. Nebraska Cornhuskers
3. Oklahoma Sooners
4. Texas Longhorns

Those are the only four schools that would pack out the place in Ames. You can probably eliminate the first because I don't recall the Hawks wearing all white uniforms ... they usually go with the yellow pants when they have the white jerseys. The same applies to Nebraska with regard to the pants ... obviously there fans would blend in. So it likely is either Land Thieves or the Horns.

Now back to your regularly scheduled banter about the suddenly expansive dimensions of Williams Stadium.
