Backside view of the new speaker section. You can really see how tall it's going to be relative to the stadium.

One was trying to pick up the other.

If you look at the bottom right corner of the board, exterior cladding work now also appears to be underway ...

Did you see my post yesterday re: the 2nd crane and metal panel work?

About 15 minutes ago they set the beam in place that was signed by the Seniors. A flag was attached and the I-beam was placed on the front edge of the frame supporting the sound system. Scroll back on the vid if you want to see it.

It's just retracted but it's there. You can see the very top of it just above the tree line on the right.

What is the reason for the flag? Just curious.

The history of topping out began as a religious homoge. Trees (stick frame origins) and flags are often used to commemorate the final structural piece being erected. Each country has different meanings behind what is incorporated.
