Knock down the West stands. Move the field closer to the East stands. Build an indoor track facility where the West stands were. Put loges, a balcony, and a press box in the track facility overhanging the field. Now we have a modern press box, cool corporate suites, ADA-compliance, and the loudest 20,000 seat stadium in college football.

Jerry, do you think Firestone will pay for this?

Couple points:

1). I like the thought.

2). I'll make a wild guess that what you describe might cost say 75M.

3). Those of us baby boomers, realize that back then, 50 years ago, social justice wasn't in our vocabulary. VA and private agencies have led the way in handicap issues as modern wars now see more wounded survive and many have sevvere disabilities.

Turns out WKU is proposing something similar. https://www.lanereport.com/169170/2023/1...press-box/
Their budget is $35 million

Good find but they are using the existing side of the STADIUM.

Maybe we can demo the West side stands and what you posted for say 50M.
