You win the thread. I would suggest one minor change... and to your last word... a change to ‘poser’.
I believe he said Wednesday that next week the announcement would be about the 10 year plan, for "Facilities" so it could be multiple facilities and multiple upgrades over several phases.
Everyone says that?
What’s prohibitive about a parking garage and tailgating? A parking garage doesn’t need to add much to the footprint of the convention center/hotel. In fact, it’s probably advisable given the flood risk.
The comment about the outcome of the game makes me think this is just salesmanship by JP. Something schedule related is my guess
Yeah, i actually would say that a parking garage would be a good thing around there.
Not everyone who comes to the games wants to tailgate. Plenty of people might be content to have a place they can show up to an hour before kickoff instead of having to struggle to find a spot when they show up late.
Im just saying everyone flipped out in a post a few months ago about the possibility of changing one of the lots to a parking garage to expand parking, but still leaving the majority of the area for tailgating. Some don't tailgate in their spot but go to another etc.
But like I posted before, and in the video of the interview I posted. Pollard said on Wednesday they would be releasing the 10 year plan for athletic facilities upgrades NEXT WEEK.
I would guess this is most likely to do with that.
He said RV park, not mobile home park
To be fair I said that in another post and people flipped out about it, thats why I said that.
And I’m saying everyone didn’t flip out. It makes a lot of sense.
But that’s not what’s being discussed. There’s not much parking between Hilton and CY Stevens. Adding a garage there under a hotel with Scheman expanded to Hilton space wouldn’t be changing an existing lot into a garage
This also doesn’t fit with the joke about the approval depending on the game. Could CyHawk be replaced with CyHusk? I hope so
Right on so far, just waiting for Church say “I’m picking the cyclones and if/when they win I’m doing a concert on the field right after the game.”
Maybe I missed where it said the approval was dependent on the game. I never heard that. I guess my feeling is still it has nothing to do a convention center, unless that is part of the overall facility plan he is going to announce next week, that he talked about in his weekly interview with Walters.
Edit: could very well be part of the overall facility plan.

He plays Saturday night at 8 in Green Bay.
I’m expecting this to be classic JP overselling.
Gonna be a short concert if he waits till after the game, he has to be back in Green Bay for his show at 8.
