San Antonio architectural firm O'Connell Robertson & Associates Inc. has been selected from a short list of highly acclaimed national architects to develop a comprehensive master plan for Texas A&M University's athletics facilities. Central to that plan is the expansion of the Aggies' Kyle Field from 82,000 to 115,000 seats, which would make it the largest football stadium in the nation. Read the rest of the story Most schools (including LSU) are expanding the stadium skyboxes and high-paying club seats, not adding more high-up cheap seats that often are hard to fill. What the hell is A&M doing?
Speaking of construction... when is the construction on Tiger Stadium scheduled to be completed??? :geaux:
I seem to remember a story where one of the contractors on a stadium build in the Northwest (Oregon, perhaps) had slipped in a little OSU in the "random" brick pattern where they mix light and dark bricks on the facade. That would be pretty funny to slip in a big UT on A&M's stadium brickwork. :rofl: Of course, with Aggie engineering, they would probably demo the whole stadium.
I would think we would have a little more respect for the 12 that died a few years ago. I understand that ATM is a rivalry, but to make hidden cracks at a group in light of the outcome is not cool. A mistake was made, and 12 students paid with their lives, no need take cracks at them.
