Has anyone been having problems posting pictures this afternoon? I've been getting server errors when trying to upload.

FWIW, I had the same problem yesterday afternoon but was able to post a picture this morning.

Here's the message I get:

Oops! We ran into some problems.
The upload failed because the file could not be written to the server. The site administrator will need to resolve this before any files can be uploaded.

The rain in Ames stays mainly in the plain.

Like I said earlier JP knows as I pointed it out to him. Now, whether he has relayed that to the workers is anyone's guess.

I'm guessing somebody has because nobody has seen anyone peeing in a corner or off the wall yet.

They would run right into them and say they were assaulted.
Plus if they put the Pollard Bollards back, they will have a tripping hazard, fall over on another and claim ISU fans put the bollards in their path, as the fans are trying to avoid bodies on the pavement.

Looking at the weather forecast for Ames for the next ten days, I can’t imagine a much better forecast in late June for that stressed sod on Jack to recover.

After yesterday’s rain, a chance of rain Thursday through the weekend, and no forecast temps higher than 89 (today), it seems like just what the doctor ordered.

There are bad brown spots just to the west of the video board support, and downhill from it. I’m guessing both need to show signs of recovery soon. Like maybe, by the time the turf company comes back to lay the sod along the concourse—which now has topsoil. (Sorry, that image couldn’t upload because of the recurring glitch)

Did Ames get a good amount of rain yesterday? DSM got a ton but it didn't look like it extended too far north when I looked at the radar

Have they watered it at all? That seems like a huge gaffe if they haven’t.

Wonder if they will put lights between the openings in the precast like they did the south endzone?

Is the only remaining concrete work just the walkways on the west side of the stadium?

Judging by the renderings, I believe that both east-west walkways will extend all the way from the SPC to the east parking lot when they’re done. And there is all concrete apron all the way across in front of the Jacobsen Building yet to be poured, I believe.

Also, @TXCyclones asked:

I assume this area will all be concrete?

They just started putting down gravel, so we’ll be able to telll how much will be concrete shortly.

Of course, the glitch means I can’t upload a photo to support this.
:rolleyes:
