I'm thinking something like this, with one wall missing

OK, in all seriousness, It sounds like for 200$ a person they will probably have something nice looking, or hopefully good wine.

I'd be willing to bet it will be something similar to what they throw up at PGA events, which, if they can get them in time to properly drape them with orange, could look pretty sharp. Besides, right now, anything is better than an empty slab of asphalt.

Sounds like a good idea. I am all for anything that will bring in additional revenue to the University. Not my cup o' tea, though. A late November game with a conference championship berth and bragging rights on the line, I want to watch this one from the "comfort" of my seat in the Doyt.

Wouldn't that be the Falcon Club tent and Falcon shop you were looking at? I was out at my car in overflow and it looked like a big black trailer type thing, it's hard to explain... kind of like the pictures posted earlier by TG1996, but not quite.

Crap. Beat me to it!

I was going to go with the "not if they put them behind the uprights" angle on that one....

I think it's a pretty good idea as long as we're making money.

Hey, whatever they are putting up, it can't look any worse than the empty cement slab we have had sitting there all season, can it? I mean, that looks terrible, and with the game on national TV, at least these tents can cover it up. When NIU had an ESPN game a few weeks ago, they had a giant wind screen with a image of their new end zone facility on it and it looked much better than our cement slab. Too bad they didn't know the SEBO project was going to be delayed, they could have at least left the endzone seats up this season. But I at least like the idea of what they are trying for the game, from a creative and visual aspect.
