Can anyone find the image of Kyle Field with something like 8 upper decks?

Going from the Zebco 3-tier to the Zebco 3-tier deluxe model, eh?

Actually, not only that, we also need the expansion renovation to improve visitor seating and increase the capacity by at least 2,000 seats.

Too much money, and I'm sure it's because that there is the multi year event. I. Personally would tear the whole thing down (minus the zone) and start over.

Forget the haters, that is good news for the Aggies.

It will be interesting to see what stadium capacity in this conference looks like five years down the line.

Didn't mean to hurt your butts that hard girls. Damn. It's just a stadium. Or you can call it the house that JFF built!

BTW: It's a major renovation and A&M has over 53,000 students. It's the biggest school in the SEC and the richest! We're big brother now bitches!

You heard it here first folks. A&M is big brother in the SEC now without a single win in the conference.

Great. Let us know when championships are awarded based on enrollment and endowment.

Get rid of the PUF and it isn't. I hate that ya'll claim that as part of your endowment fund.

We took away seats and still have an avg of over 90k? We would sell out every stadium in the SEC except Bama every year in one of the worst periods in our program's history...

This just baffles me. $400,000,000 for an expansion? and it's bleachers? It already seats 83,000 give or take. So for the extra 20,000 seats that is $20,000 cost per seat.

It costs to have the undisputed nicest joint in the country.

And make no mistake, this bad boy will set the new standard.

And Bama, y'all went 100k+ from an even lower previous capacity than us.

In 5 years, there will be twice as many living Aggie alumni. Obviously you're trying to strike an equilibrium between projected success and the amount of fans you know will be there regardless. It's tough. But without question, those driving this ship are smarter than a bunch of rantards.

But y'all keep hating.
