It's probably for the best because the stadium won't be full. Students are going home this weekend like we're the ones expecting a hurricane to hit.

I walked by the scoreboard tonight after watching the cross country meet (dont ask me why i went, it was quite boring) anyhow, it looked like they were testing it out. ALL of the lights worked on the actual time/score part. They had all of the ads in, I don't exactly recall what they were exactly. and on the video board they had some sort of animated fans cheering. It was really impressive to see that in OUR stadium. One thing I wish they would have done would have been taking the old scoreboard, fixing the lights that were broken and put it in the North endzone. I think that would be pretty cool, but what can you do? Anyhow, just wanted to give you guys an update on the scoreboard and they are working all the kinks out for next saturday. peace and exactly 14 hours.[/b]

I like the idea of the other board in the North Endzone. Maybe you should make some calls and see if you can get that arranged. I doubt anyone even though of that!

Glad to hear they're saving the unveiling of the new board for the first home game. It will seem like more of an event. New board, new uniforms, new paint on the railings and a new QB.

Same hotdogs from last year though. I hope they at least froze them over the spring and summer...

Now that the game is on TV, I doubt if anyone would have gone to see it in the Stadium.
