One thing I kind of wondered about at the Ice Bowl, current end zone bleachers had some of the worst attendance in the stadium, other than section J, which had no one. Wasn't sure if people moved to better seats or what, but it seemed like you might get some of the worst wind coming right at you in the south end zone.

Have any specific details been given?? Construction date? Plans? Pics?

I'm updating the OP as more details are released. JP did say that the final plans have not been inked yet. There are discussions to be had with the architects/engineers. They want to complete the work in time for the opening of the 2015 football season.

Yeah, VERY excited for the next step when they get an architect on board and get some drawings out. I know I've always seen people's concepts with a true lower bowl, but you have to think it'll have some height to it to really maximize the external visual they are seeking...which is great!

Hope it ties to an upper deck/club type of section. Also, you gotta think a video board will be a part of the concept?

Great way to ensure people buy tickets next year regardless of how this year went.
