Is it gonna take another $160 mil to get that end zone enclosed?

The north endzone is mostly enclosed besides the slightly open part you see to the left, which I like as that view is pretty queer.
Uh, yeah.

I doubt the contract gets extended for even cupcake ooc games. I think the current one ends in 2018?

Sounds right and yes I don't think we will be playing anymore after the deals up. I liked having some of the games in Little Rock but that stadium is horrible. In a perfect world we would update that stadium and at least play one OCC game there.

If there's one thing I have to credit the flagship, it's that their facility game is the best in the country

Why not enclose the bowl?

I got detention.
They don't know I have my phone today.
But I think it's funny seeing pigs defend their stupid looking shite as somehow looking nice - just what you'd expect from an aggie.
I mean the rest looks great, but it kind of looks like you left your back door open.

As far I know there are many who enjoy that view from the hill and it is a great view but I would still rather enclose it.

Tradition. There is a hill through that hole where you can stand and watch the games. It's always attracted a crowd there since the stadium was first opened.

That's pretty cool that they will keep that tradition.
No doubt, L$U would have told fans to kick rocks and done whatever they could do to bring in more revenue.

Also, keep that hill open allows for fans to stop and take a picture with the field as a backdrop since the stadium is down in a bowl. 
This is a very common occurrence.

I agree. It's definitely a nice touch. I would guess though down the line, if we ever need additionally seating capacity, they'll enclose it.
Posted on 6/16/16 at 12:18 pm to TheCheshireHog
Capacity is only going up by about 3,000 seats. The big increase will be in the number of available suites. This is aimed primarily at the top end stadium goer.

Yeah my wife and I have a picture in our house like this and I see them on social media all the time from others. That's definitely a tradition as well.

It'll never be ready in time

Awesome!
Good to see that Arkansas isn't broke like OU and other schools I won't mention
