First Look at GATAVision

Pictures taken 8/28 while my brother and I attended Chipdawg's seminar and visited with Dawgmatic and Dogtorevil. By the way, we all need to thank Chipdawg for getting this done. Very good example of how different departments(engineering and athletics) can work together to get great results for both.
I will post pics later.

I believe that framework IS for the silver siding like in the original drawing. The graphic banner will go on the back of the screen itself.

Looking good. Thanks for the pics, Don.

Saw it on Thursday. It was love at first sight.

From the field, that thing looks like a monster.

Good pics Don

that thing looks like it was designed to be a giant sound-wave reflector. the Joe's gonna be twice as loud now.

Hmm, I wonder if the 'tron could be calibrated to project a sound wave that could influence fieldgoal kicks . . .

Great pics. Thanks Don.

Never thought of that to be honest. But enclosing any stadium to any extent has to do something! Can't wait for the Hawaii and Boise games! This time they'll get some noise!

I have no idea what the actual framework is going to look like or where on the structure it is going to go, but it is sounding like a giant graphic banner similar to the other ones hanging on the stadium. However this one will have a very different design. If it is what we think it is, everyone is going to love it. I think the administration wants this part to be a surprise, so i am not going to ruin it for them, but rest assured it will be a strong, impressive design!

GATA Dawgs!
