    Visiting teams are routed out back past the FB practice field, thru the baseball stadium parking lot, and past a tour of the the Presiden'ts home before heading back to the stadium and entering thru the NE tunnel. About 1.4 miles. The visiting players and coaches will have an opportunity to purchase Buff memorabilia along the way at convenient locations.
    HAHAHAHAHAHA Chip!!!! Made me spit out my drink!!! :laugh:

Today they also had to re-grade the field all the way around the outer edge due to the large downpour this week - hope they get it in gear and cover that field soonest.
      Are they still on schedule? Seems like they pick up steam then hit a lull for a few days.

        That is brilliant marketing ingenuity. Certainly better than having the visiting team using the dressing room up the road at Kimbrough, unless it has already been demolished.

          I heard they just got the change order approved for the moving walkways from the Buffalo locker room to the bench area!

            That was considered and rejected. The only thing being brought from Kimbrough, besides the white buffalo, are the port-a-potties. They'll be installed (without doors) just outside the visitor's dressing room. Remind the visiting team managers to bring tp.

                Not about the stadium but I saw the soccer field is currently getting new turf. Went for a walk with my oldest son a couple nights ago and they we're pulling up the old turf. I wonder if it's the same vendor as the football field

                      I tell you, beyond a shadow of a doubt, Matrix Turf & CushDrain is absolutely the BEST there is.

                      I mean to h3ll with how the stadium looks. Who cares... .because you will have the best field there is.

                        I know nothing about field turf so I wondered if there was a little smoke blowing going on. You know how it is, any time a school gets something new it's the "best in the business"
                        I'm glad to hear it will be a quality product. I was out last night and walked around the stadium perimeter. I'd prefer to have the concrete upper deck on both sides, but I get the cost. The upper level definitely feels very close to the field and should create a good environment if the team is good and the fans are into it

                          If you say it's the best, hope that's what FB is getting.

                                Looks like some stadium seating has been delivered. Sitting in boxes on the stands, which are finished. It looks like the seating will begin being installed next week. The scoreboard supports are being finished. Poles for fencing the south side of the stadium are installed. Had 3 concrete trucks hanging around yesterday afternoon (I don't know for what). Barring something catastrophic weatherwise, I'd bet we're going to make it on time.

                                When finished, the reditions will look lame compared to the real McCoy. If our football team can play as well as their digs will look, Buff FB will be top echelon.

                                If not, it'll be like the Clampetts living in a Beverly Hills mansion.
