fingers crossed its not in light up yellow like the drawings.


You're gonna be disappointed, but hopefully the renderings didn't do it justice. We shall see.

Dropping that knowledge.

I see what you were talking about with the brackets that hold up the letters. Can't believe they didn't get that right the first time. Maybe they let an intern design that.

The usual. Just started class yesterday. My avi is the notorious teabagger. Seemed fitting since I had to find a new one when the admins decided to whack my cactus dick avi. SWIDT?

Iswydt. I knew that guy looked familiar. Whats your class/work schedule like? Anyway so this isn't a total hijack, I would really like to see some of these new improvements in person. Have u been able to pass by there yet? I'd like to hear your opinion. This Scotty Moran area and the new lights at night.

The lights and the north side in general, look absolutely awesome.

The west currently looks like a dumpster fire, but it did before they started this new stuff, so I'm holding out hope that when they're done it'll at least look better than it did.

i was in the tiger stadium parking lot earlier tonight. the new gates could look great if they actually matched anything on the stadium or campus for that matter. precast white looking columns, brown brick veneers, 2 huge caged windows & one clear window and a concrete stadium just don't go well at all together.

the letters will look pretty goofy once they are all installed. the upper deck will be totally lit up except for the horizontal beam that the letters will be sitting on. so you'll have the words tiger stadium sitting on a big black line. that whole side of the stadium just looks like they are trying too hard to compensate for the ugliness that's already there.

on the other hand, the north side of the stadium looks awesome.

The fact that night crews have been working means they are worried about not finishing on time.

I heard they're going to create a bronze sculpture scene, with a cast of Bernhardt, Moran, Alleva, and a huge dollar sign.
