It's pretty damn nice now, but no way I could afford it if I was a student. It's over $50 with a cart easily.

The pictures don't do it justice. It makes the stadium look so much better aesthetically.

Well there was only one way for Tiger Stadium to go.

Exterior work really did spruce it up.

Those lighting structures are massive, and really will enhance Faurot with the better lighting it's going to provide.

the new expansion looks good under the lights.

one of the original renovation renderings shows a post light array on each corner in addition to the new rows of lights on those canopy structures. I wonder if those will go up toward the end of completion.

Are those lights I see on top of the existing press box/suites across from the expansion?
?

Yes. The west side had a tremendous shadow issue, and notice no lights in the game against A&M last season late in the season. The two single light poles on the west side will be kept along with the lights on top of press box/suites to help make Faurot as bright as needed for night games, that has been a common complaint for years.

Great news! I can't wait to make the trip up there for a football game.

That south end zone just blows my mind
Love the way the press box peeks over the side in that picture.

I wish the plan was to cover the exterior of the south like the rest of the stadium. Not sure who's idea it was to just brick along the steel.
