Somebody is going to have to give this Texan and his crew a tour of this joint after it is completed. It looks better every time pics are posted.

Took a tour this morning - Man is this thing going to be nice!! I worked for Wizards and Caps when MCI Center was being built - and the quality is pretty much the same. It is going to be one of the nicest in the country... The window wall opposite the field is going to be spectacular. Just the lower concourse under new tower changes the whole feel of the stadium.

I can't wait until the first game...

One night... at band camp...... We got to see the stadium. it was............. epic.

If you were at LU's game at WVU last year, all you had to do was look at their press box...LU's will be more than twice the size (no, not an exaggeration), and 30 years newer.

That's the scale we're talkin here!

haha...the last few years the tradition has been to have the last Saturdya night practice of camp in the stadium...cant wait to be in there with all the changes (and REALLY cant wait to see the stadium packed to the gills for the home opener)

Wow! Honestly I knew it was going to be big, but not THAT big. Being at the WVU game, I did think that the press box was huge. Now hearing that LU's is about 2 times the size has gotten me really stoked for this year!

LU's will have 5 floors to WVU's 3, and LU's will be much longer. It won't be as high.

[Cider Jim]

Larger than WVU's? So are we talking Marshall University size?

Maybe, but w/ the press reporting from it on a lot more victories.

They have the first three sections of roof on as of my driving by this morning

no they dont

[BJWilliams]

I dont know what youre looking at but I saw three or four guys working up there when I drove by (which actually was about 25 minutes ago or so) and it looks like they has some sort of tile on the roof area

BJ- I think he's referring to 3 sections. It looks like they have just started on 1 section.

[BJWilliams]

thanks for clarifying Rooster...I count in between each roof support as a section (not that we need to go into semantics at this point...the roof is going on!)

[LUnpretty11]

Hum baby! 20% of the sheet metal is on the roof (that's what BJ was looking at, not tile though). This thing is no joke moving along quickly now.

I'm curious as to why they're not finishing the seating concrete. I guess it would probably be in the way of something they need to do first, but I wonder what.

If you've noticed, the crane they were using to put the precast pieces into the seating area they have been using to put precast pieces on the press box. I'm sure the focus has been/will be the press box as it will take much more time to complete the press box. It looks like they are now done with those precast pieces for the press box so maybe they'll move on to finishing the seating section now.

I hope that makes some sense.

This thing is going to be amazing! Who's giving the insider's tour for flamefans members during homecoming weekend?

From what I've heard, it will be proto.

[From the class of 09]

In case you can't see the field from way up in this new press box there will be 48 46" Flat Screen TVs located throughout!!! This is going to be great!!!

[BJWilliams]

the sheet metal that LUnpretty talked about yesterday is almost completely in on the stadium side (they still have to put it in on the soccer field side)
