Re: Indoor facility
When you drive down Kagy from the east the stadium and now the IPF really pop out thanks to being up higher on Kagy. I really think it will look immense once the east grandstand is re-done with sky boxes. I'm assuming it will be as high as the EZ seating with skyboxes added to the top of that. The backside of the new grandstand would be like a huge billboard that MSU could get creative with.

Re: Indoor facility
You can see Wgs from the interstate if you know where to look but it’s obscured by the train tracks and power lines. It looks like it’s in an industrial area.damnyoutuesday wrote: ↑Mon Mar 31, 2025 4:32 pmIt's probably also that yours is kind of tucked away in the corner of campus and ours is very much out in the open with nothing really near itRainierGriz wrote: ↑Mon Mar 31, 2025 2:05 pmI think that is partially due to our field being quite a bit below ground level.

Re: Indoor facility
I drove by yesterday and you souls see lights on inside hanging from the ceiling.
One thing that will be interesting is will snow stick to the roof or is it steep enough it just slides off? Because that roof will be dumping snow on the sides of the building where someone could be walking.

That reminds me of a time I saw a facility services van parked back behind the fieldhouse and it got absolutely demolished by a sheet of snow sliding off the fieldhouse roof.lutecat wrote: ↑Thu Apr 03, 2025 11:09 amI drove by yesterday and you souls see lights on inside hanging from the ceiling.
