The 23-foot statue will be part of the Falcon Spirit Plaza, which will serve as a front entrance not only to the new arena, but to the BGSU campus and community.

This is was REALLY excites me about this project!!!

Do we have any other info on what this Falcon Spirit Plaza will consist of? I assume a location has been determined for the Stroh Center. Can someone who is privy to the info shed some light on either of these subjects?

This IS awesome! Will make the Stroh look even more awesome.

Oh and the comparison to UT's "rocket" statue vs what our's is gonna be is um.....well there's no comparison really.

I know a little bit more about it, but I think there are going to be some more announcements along the line and I don't want to rob anyone of their thunder, so let's just say it's going to be what we've all hoped BGSU would have for quite some time...

You won't be disappointed.
