That is neat.

When we renovate (or build) we need to remember to make the roof more interesting since it will be so prominent in these types of images.

Another thing (possibly mentioned here before) that I never noticed is that AA is really in need of some type of signage on the front of the building. That little sign in the landscaping is not enough.

It looks like it could be any high school in any state in anycity in the country.

We do need to liven up the outside when we rebuild it.

PS, It is begging for someone to sneak up on the roof and put a huge sign that says BGSU by the way.. Or a big Falcon logo in.....

Man, you don't realize just how bland AA is until you see a view from above like that. Cool view though. If we are to completely renovate AA , that big grassy space to the north has to be factored in I'd presume as its not being used for anything at all. AA really doesn't look like an arena at all just some bland almost perfectly square box of building.

Bland indeed. Rather than spending much time on the picture....I followed the roads off campus, over to main, up Rt. 25 and back to my house in Perrysburg.

I think I enjoy these programs a little too much.

BFD. It rocks on the inside when the Falcons are winning, and that's what matters to me. We could play in an old crack den, and if the walls are shaking and the crowd is a sea of orange crazyness, I'd be just fine with that.

I couldn't agree more.

Anyone else interested? That could be a great way to keep the LT logo going....

I like your style....

And yeah... the Microsoft live maps is one of the best time-wasters I've found! "driving" the commute from Glasstech to BG is fun... and I can get about half way home up the Portage River to Pemberville before the hi-rez images go bye-bye...

BGSU? LT logo? Bah! Let's have some fun. How about "Toledo Sucks" or something like this "3-<"!

Do you mean Snakeman?

Snakeman will never leave. He is like Herpes.
