Drove past the Jack tonight. Noticed some big speakers hanging off the front of the North Endzone Jumbotron structure. Is this left over from George Strait or what’s the story here? When are they doing new speakers? I assume these aren’t the permanent ones.

Isn't it sound system and video boards both this yr for the Jack and Hilton?

Both Hilton and JTS are getting new sound systems this year per Pollard on the radio a few months ago, the screens at Trice are next year though instead of this year like Hilton.
I believe you are correct.

Anyone happen to drive by the stadium and snap a photo of the new speakers at Jack Trice? I know this was part of the plan for video/audio in Hilton and Trice but curious how they look. TIA.

They look odd to me. But whatever if it fixes sound issues.

I don't care if it is a little Bose Wave Radio on each side - if it fixes the problems I don't really care how it looks.

I mostly agree as the sound system always sounded bad in Jack Trice, IMO. As I noted above, curious to see photos that anyone may have of what it looks like. There were renderings that were on another thread last fall but can't find them at the moment. Also, the plans called for new video boards that extended the width of each structure so assuming that is still the plan, that will be a big improvement to the game day atmostphere starting next year between the new video boards and new sounds system this year.

Welcome to Jack Trice Stadium - Mid-American Field sponsored by the Bose Wave Radio.

Here's Paul Harvey to tell us more
If we could get Paul Harvey back from the dead for our next guest picker that would be quite the coup. But, alas, dead for 15 years probably is beyond mostly dead into all dead territory.
