Long Range plans for Hilton
- Thread starter mcdrier
- Start date
Even Though Fred is a hometown boy he is still going to want more money in the future. we need to find a way to raise that. Ticket demand is extremely high now. I'm all for raising prices on the lower sections significantly. Especially if it means keeping upper section prices low
Think it's still on, bid are coming in on May 14th: http://www.fpm.iastate.edu/planning/construction/biddates/biddates.pdf
A mailing went out to current johnnys members about this thats arriving this week.
Honestly still think its a terrible idea. Lets take an already cramped concourse and cram people onto an even smaller inner concourse. And then lets push the johnny statue inside the enclosed area away from 90% of fans.

Low bid was almost 33% over the estimate. Almost $1 M. When I checked the bid had neither been accepted or rejected.

i opened this this but didn't see the "Johnny's Renovation" one. Maybe I don't have clearance.
Who the hell cares if Fred leaves?
I honestly think they should forget the repricing of Hilton. No one will care after next year (we owe Georges and Naz and Monte).

might be time for you to step away for the night, jsb. You are obviously upset about what may or may not happen. But, you're starting to be a detriment to the rest of the folks on the board. Give yourself a rest for a day or two. Calm yourself a bit. Maybe you'll gain a new perspective. Maybe you won't. But let it go for the night.
This low bid of $977,000 was selected.

Noticed Wells Fargo Arena recently got a new video board, which was installed around the same time as the Hilton videobard and ribbons. Curious if we'll see a replacement soon.

Did anything ever come from the idea about building a much larger "Johnny's" at the NE corner of Hilton? Probably not since they have put so much money into the current one. I thought it was a great idea to have a multi-level "Johnny's" that could handle tons more people. Something more like the new Endzone Club.
