Considering the 1st row starts right behind the plywood, I'd say it's pretty close.

My bad, Rice. I completely forgot about the bleachers not installed yet in the NEZ. Thanks for the reminder.

Not to mention that there will be some seats overhanging the first level on the 2nd tier.

I'm sure it's nothing that a $500 retainer can't fix.  Contact JackRabbit Hog for payment instructions.

When the construction crew is working at full strength at DWRRS, I believe the crowd there is slightly larger than the one at WMS last night.

WMS has been "done" for at least two decades....   it is really pathetic that the Hogs play even one, "rent a win", game there at all, even for "old times sake".....    DWRRS is a premier venue for the Hogs to play in and they should play all home games there....

Well your (and a lot of other hog fan's) wishes is about to come true. Long was adamant that the Hogs will finish out contract with WMS next season but I'm not so sure...

It's different for everyone, whatever you set up when they asked you if you wanted weekly updates on the NEZ construction.

That must have been very frightening.  Did you take the ditch to avoid it? :-)

Are you 3 years old or just think your funny person?

So, when are the poles for the "Allstate" net going up, surely we aren't going to kick football's into the construction area, haha.

Yeah - right after I posted that, I went back and checked some older pics and saw just that.  Came back and deleted my post, but obviously you responded before I did.

Thanks for the correction, however.

I guess I just never noticed those few rows before.

So ...

If no bleachers ... then final capacity must be less than 80,000?

If bleachers altered ... it used to be 4,000 more seats but with the new video board it will be less, so still less than 80,000?

Yep, there haven't been the temporary bleachers for at least two years, maybe three. Probably around 77,000 or so capacity.

Will the NEZ structure in place hold in any crowd noise? Just wondering.

Anyone know what kind of new concessions my taste buds can be exposed to when I come to a game and sit in my West upperdeck ?  :(

The whole stadium is getting new concessions.  Sudexo is gone and Levy is our new provider.  I'm interested to see the changes and pricing.

And also don't forget, the Hogs were MUCH better back then...

I'm thinking those of us upperdeckers will still get basic crap. Maybe they will have enough mustard for our hot dogs this year  ;D

Glad Sudexo is gone.  Genuinely bad company.  I'm sure most food vendors for athletic events are over priced and are not ashamed of it.  However, after attending a training for Sudexo years ago with a not for profit fundraiser, I was astonished at the greed/evil/arrogance of that group.

I had remained hopeful once I saw the contract switch to Levy several months ago. If those pics are of the best of the new offerings, I think I'll just grab a few dog treats before I leave the house Saturday morning.

Now, about this Pepsi snafu...

It didn't seem like it took them long to get the paneling on the SEZ board... I bet they'll get it done.

They still haven't put up the paneling. I don't imagine it will be done before Saturday at this point...
