Yeah they're busting their asses to get it finished for the home opener. Looks like the same can be said for you guys.

Brick samples


Sorta, but not really.

It actually makes the Client/University sign off on the design or make last minute changes. Plus a little practice for a few workers.

Interior fire escape stairs, likely. They'll be walled off.

Absolutely.
Thank you for the correction.
"Mock-ups" would've been a better answer/description.

Help me out, what kind of amenities are planned for that MSU endzone project? I know LSU's will include a stadium club, suites, premium seating, and SRO.

Yes.

After the 2014 season the alumni side will be imploded and rebuilt as well.

Most of the seating will be for students. 3 premium areas are being added as well. The ground level is a special club that can be accessed by any season ticket holders. It is an additional $750 per year per member. The top level is a special club as well that is limited to only people in that area. There are also 22 new skyboxes that sold out quickly.

The old sideline student seats are being sold as season tickets.

Go to a game and you'll know for sure. All the noise comes from one side, the student side, the alumni get into it on big third downs. But one side is annoying as frick with their stupid chants and shite. And one side is okay.


I'm just jealous and butthurt because we couldn't get one chant accomplished much less 45k in unison throughout a game.

This offseason, the bottom deck of the East side has been demolished, the field has been lowered 8 feet, a South endzone is being built, and buildings are being built on each corner of the East side. It'll seat 109,000 this fall. After 2014 season, the West side is being totally demolished and rebuilt, with more suites, and the facade is going to be finished. Final seat count will be around 102,500.
