New Scoreboard - Construction Progress

[AU-24 3,107]

Is it frustrating to any one else we spend $14M on a new video board and then when it comes down to the "details" we say screw it, and throw a tarp up?

Yes, very frustrating.

I realize you can't please all the people all the time, but the cheap looking tarps, are a little ridiculous, when it comes to a $14M project!

Does anyone know why they don't pressure wash the concrete inside the stadium? I've wondered this before, in general, but even more so now that the scoreboard is up. The front facing shot from the North end zone really makes the seating area diminish the glory of the scoreboard, IMO.

I'm pretty sure that they do. They were removing bleachers so that they could pressure wash the areas underneath them.

Interesting, tks! Just doesn't look like it I guess.

I find it funny and little ironic that one of the adds on the banner ads on the AUfamily page was for tarps.

Geez that is one small arse clock ....

Relatively speaking of course. I mean everything is small in comparison, the goal post is even small compared to Aubietron. I wonder how tall those numbers really are, 4 feet maybe ?

I asked my girlfriend about it and she said clock size isn't important.

Once you see it in person, you wouldn't want it any bigger.

Also, If we keep the hedges trimmed it should look adequate.

Wait, what? Ohhhh. I see what you did there. Anyways, back to the clock. It has to be like 8-10, err feet high. Right?

I'll be disappointed if you catch any grief for such a well crafted joke.

The clock has a glitch. It goes from six to twelve* every time they turn the screen on. Also, your handle rocks.

*Thanks, Barnacle!

Now, that's a Momma joke.

[passthebiscuits 6,862]

I don't know how accurate that clock is...I thought a few hours had gone by but my wife said it was only a minute or two.

Ooh, we should have a competition. It would be like a playoff or a runoff, except for hijacks. What would we call it, though?
