It won't look like that.
I don't see how they fix it. It might wind up looking like that given the money they're throwing onto the top of that sideline structure.
It's still an awesome project, though.

It doesn't look great but i don't know how else they could have made it mesh on both sides. Our new expansion doesn't exactly "flow" very well with the rest of our stadium either.
agree with all of this. it flows pretty well on the inside. and the outside looks great but yeah it doesnt really flow.

Butts in seats, for starters.
Tough to look at a massive construction project only a quarter of the way in and make summative comments, that's all.

I'm sure there will be a few minor quirks like that, it's just what happens with these older stadiums being expanded. Plenty of things in Tiger Stadium don't line up perfectly.

You dont think when they put in seats, ribbon boards, and the new concrete gets dirty then it will look just fine.

probably so. Here's an example in TS. It's really not a big deal at all. btw you're welcome for a picture of TS with the saints playing.

I think it is still winter up there. When does non winter come to Columbia?

i dont think it helps that the live cam for missouri seems to have a weird lense. the colors seem weird on it.

It always seems to look like photographs from the 60's - 70's type look.

When are they going to install the lid for Bryant Denny? I know progress has been made on the TideyBowl replica, which will be placed above the South End Zone (a la a pirate ship in Raymond James.)

More to do with camera having to project through dark glass used in press box suites, and at Hearnes Center. Basically the glass is designed to keep sun light from entering the Press boxes.

I had assumed the one looking east across the field was inside the press box building and the one looking west at the east side outer was on top of Hearnes. Would explain why the one cam always looks dim, also those cams where probably purchased back in b12 days so they probably came from wal mart.

I was at that game, we were playing the Dolphins
Anyone care to venture a guess who their coach was at the time?

I need to see a few of my doctors up in CS so I can see this beast up close.
