Would you rather have one of he biggest jumbo trons or a big press box? I think recruits would go for the jumbo tron over a press box.

Wait... 2004... That was game where K-State imploded and we scored 28 or 35 to win.

2006 I didn't make it. 2008 we wore the yellow pants for an away game. Last time we have worn them. Then again, Chiz was the coach, and Austen threw for 400+ yards, and we gained about 600 yards and lost.

Why do we have a 3 page thread on KSU's stadium?

Thank god we wear cardinal pants now.

I dont think an expanded press box could withstand the high winds in Ames (mobilejimlad)

I'll be honest, I'd be slightly upset if plans came out tomorrow for an expanded press box. That adds nothing to our stadium like an endzone would and expanding the press box would be FAR from cost effective. That money would be better invested in either the football building or improvements in Hilton.

This.

I also agree with the poster who feels that BSFS is a dump. Yes, its bowled in, but it has wooden bleachers for crying out loud. Its on the edge of town with nothing but scrub countryside for a back drop.

Don't get me wrong, I had a pretty good time down there, but it was a long ways from "nice".
