What was going on this summer that so much broke down?

Game clock was broken, play clock was broken at some points and the elevator was broken at halftime. This was a little disturbing

But that new sound system though

I thought it sounded good outside of one song (it screeched really loud).

The weirdest part about the game clock that my roommate pointed out to me was that it worked for the 1 hour countdown to kickoff before the game started. I wonder what happened that it screwed up for the actual game.

Wait, was there a new sound system? If so, that was wasted money.

Sound system seemed just like last year, with some one still lacking volume control.

That's what I thought. I had not kept up with any news about stadium renovations though. I was impressed by the increased wifi and cell service in the stadium though. Came in handy during the lightning delay to keep up with weather on phone and with meeting up with friends between tailgates.

Gus wanted Bert to focus on the game and not the clock, so he took that element of distraction off the board.

The clock could be reset and run from the press box. But the control from the field did work. That is why they reset it at every change of possession.

Need new video board, sound system. Understand we are holding out on a second score board because they may remodel the endzone, so we have the 1983 score board. Time to do something about that.

I was in the alumni section also. I couldn't hear the music in the intro videos, nor the refs.
