"Beautiful" is the word I thought of.
People that are just average sports fans in Shreveport/Bossier came up to me and asked, "That will be in place by next year? And season tickets cost only ..what?"
Re: First Look at the Jumbotron
is that really what it's going to look like or is this like one of those concept cars that you get excited about but never gets built?
where is the pic from?

From tonight's Tech & Tails 2 event at the Bossier Civic Center. Dooley himself showed this slide to the crowd.
Should have came and seen it for yourself!
Let's see, last year at this event Dooley annouced the new logos and showed all the pictures. (that happened)
This year he showed the new North End Zone "Big TV". I'm betting it will be done!
One more reason to come to this event every year. Dooley annouces the new stuff to the public HERE first!

"Plan your work and work your plan." That's what my boss likes to say when people give him excuses to why something wasn't done. That and, "I don't want you to work harder. I want you to work SMARTER!" Kinda goes back to the "work" and "plan" thing though.:D

HOLY CRAP that is amazing!
Did he say if there will be anything under the bricks? Might be a good place for some kinds of "legends statues area" as well as providing a walkway to both sides of the stadium.

Truthfully I was running around all night. I caught bits and pieces only. Someone else should answer that.
Re: First Look at the Jumbotron
Coach Dooley also showed the new stadium seats that are going to be put in for next season. I thought they looked nice as well. It will definitely make the stadium more upgraded.

I didn't hear him say anything to that nature. Of course, I quit listening after he apologized to me for having a "red out" game too soon in our fanbuilding phase.:laugh:
Re: First Look at the Jumbotron
If what you showed is built, then there is only one word to describe it.......
"Classy" :thumbsup:
Re: First Look at the Jumbotron
Seriously, though, the screen and the whole setup is going to be great. As Dooley said, and JAB reiterated, they'll be some people come to the game just to see it on the big screen. He did say they've got other ideas as well but didn't let on what that was. One thing he did say that was to kind of calm down all those who've been complaining about taking so long getting the jumbotron is that the good thing about getting one so long after our competition is that we have the most current state of the art while there's is old and smaller and not as good. Naturally, this refers to other non-BCS who can't just spend money to change screens whenever they want, so basically what he's saying is that from now on, our "stuff" is going to be newer and more state of the art than the "stuff" of our recruitining opponents which I thought was a very good point.
