The tunnel is never going to get a lid with that bobcat having to drive all the way to the backside of the hill to get one bucket of rock at a time...

I just want a hotel right overhead on top of the the 50yard line. It will be made of glass and one can be watching the game underneath without moving out of their bed. At night you would just press a button and glass changes to dark mode and no lights would come in or see through. Something weird like that yet cutting edge.

I swear there's been a lift working that huge window area since the glass arrived.

Sorry, couldn't resist this gif!!

Does anyone think the retaining wall will "retain" any of the sound? My guess is probably not because it's set too far back and not high enough but I am not sound expert

I could see the south end of the stadium being a little noisier but I can't imagine it will keep much more noise in.

Reminds me of the little engine that could!!! :oops:

I know I'm in the minority here, but I don't mind the jacobson building at all. That being said, does anyone have the concept from Cal Lewis? (a quick google search didn't find anything) Maybe I only like the jake because that's what's there.


I like the Jacobson Building from inside the stadium, especially the roof line. Maybe I'm just used to it, but I think it is very cool. I know it's a stretch, but it always makes me think of the Air Force Academy chapel.

Now from the outside view (which all of a sudden is very visible), it seems quite plane. Perhaps they just haven't dressed it up for the new construction.

I agree with this. The Jacobson building doesn’t bother me in the slightest. But I could be used to it by now. Something unique for the stadium.

Since nobody posted construction photos from graduation inside the stadium, I went in and took a few today.
