Burning River Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Pretty nice, TOO nice maybe. The scoreboard is REDICULOUS. There is no way that 600 tons hould be hanging over the players heads. Only 100 feet off of the ground?? This is a bad idea to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shumway Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 That idea for the suite right where the players come onto the field is unbelievable. Are there any other stadiums that have such a feature?I'm curious of how to even fit 286 concession stands in a stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Clemente Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 I would not feel comfortable with that 600 TON scoreboard hanging over the field.God that stadium is huge. I like how it is roughly 2.5 times bigger than Texas Stadium, holds 27,000 more people and has over 5 times the amount of concessions...and yet has fewer entrances, elevators, escalators and toilets!--Roger "Time?" Clemente. Follow me on Twitter if you care: @Animal_Clans.My opinion may or may not be the same as yours. The choice is up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cappital92 Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 I think the stadium should be underground so Satan can watch his favorite team. http://www.wizardsxtra.com Is it the shoes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainmaker17 Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 I'm still pissed this entire project isn't taking place IN Dallas. Jerry wanted to build downtown, but our egotistical idiot of a Mayor, Laura Miller, nixed the deal. I'll be damned if I'm getting up at 8am to drive to Arlington for a game.

But that scoreboard is just redicilious. Hopefully nothing like what happend at HSBC in '96 happens in this new stadium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfwabel Posted December 12, 2006 Author Share Posted December 12, 2006 I'm still pissed this entire project isn't taking place IN Dallas. Jerry wanted to build downtown, but our egotistical idiot of a Mayor, Laura Miller, nixed the deal. I'll be damned if I'm getting up at 8am to drive to Arlington for a game.It is not entirely the mayor's fault. Part of bringing the team back to Dallas had to do with Dallas County, plus Fair Park (where the Cotton Bowl is located for those not too familiar with Dallas) is on Dallas Park/Recreation property. Current state law forbids the use of hotel/car rental taxes for use os such land. That is not her fault. There were attempts to have a ballot for its repeal, but those failed.

Drew22 Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 I'd put one into the scoreboard while i was under it, then blame the Cowboys. Eagles/Heels/Dawgs/Falcons/Hawks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEAD! Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 I'm not sure about those field level suites, especially along the sidelines. Wouldn't their views would be obstructed by the players, media and officals surrounding the field. I love this feature:"RESTROOMSThere will me more than 1600 toilets in the stadium. Some of the restrooms will be reversible between men's and women's depending on the demands of the event" I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadmanLA Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Looking at those plans, it a cross between Texas Stadium and the new Cardinals stadium in Arizona. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoHoJoe Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Nice pics. I hope the New Orange Bowl (Read: Miami-Dade county's version of the tear down and new building of Wembley Stadium) will be just like that! BRING BASEBALL BACK TO MONTREAL!!!! MON AMOURS SIEMPRE!!

Are there any other stadiums that have such a feature?I'm curious of how to even fit 286 concession stands in a stadium.The Phoenix Coyotes have a restaurant adjacent from the Players tunnel.On the stadium though, am I the only one who looks at it and automatically thinks "Cardinal rip-off"?

rainmaker17 Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 On the stadium though, am I the only one who looks at it and automatically thinks "Cardinal rip-off"?Not really. I think it looks spectacular, like a futuristic Texas Stadium. I was afraid we were going to get a Reliant (Houston) clone. I'm really happy with this.
