We won't see the stadium at night until probably the UGA game.
Speaking of game times, I will be pissed if our first game in the renovated VHS is at 11am

Looks like they are bricking up the wall in the NEZ.

I still don't know how they're going to fit all the students in the NEZ.

All of the students? They don't all go to the game, only the ones with tickets.

I know that...they filled up the whole SEZ + last year tho. Not that it matters to me anymore
Posted on 8/17/16 at 4:44 pm to OMReb21
No they didn't. Almost half of the SEZ was non students. They have more seats allocated to them in the NEZ.
Posted on 8/17/16 at 4:52 pm to Landmass
It's close. I just say that because of the old seating chart and how high the new seats go. But that makes sense.

I guess that was for last season. I don't remember it ever going that far to the east. Anyway, aren't the students getting 5,000 more seats this season?
Posted on 8/17/16 at 7:00 pm to Landmass
That was only for last year as they added the new premium seats at the top & bottom of the SEZ and the students are only getting 2000 more seats.

It's plenty for the students.

For now I agree it's a good amount for the students as that will be close to half of the student population from last year (23838), but if the student population keeps growing like it does the stadium will need to expand again just to increase the student capacity (pretty much like what the current expansion is doing).
For reference In the last 5 years (not including the upcoming year) the student population has increased by around 3000 students total.

Just noticed a few more pictures of the new STEM building that will be across the street from VH. The whole project will make the last portion of the Walk of Champions look incredible.
^^^The main pathway is the WoC leading to the stadium in the background. Legit.^^^
^^^Looks like the view from the other side by Hume looking toward the Turner Center.^^^

Students don't get shade anymore. Sucks for those guys but I'm glad I can get season tickets for my old section and not have to worry about alcohol raining down on me

Just rode by stadium. Painting west side same beige color as rest of stadium. That should help
Posted on 8/18/16 at 4:41 pm to hehatedrew
Yeah that old grey color was weird compared to the rest of the stadium.
