Well I presume they flushed it. I'll certainly be happy to take excess clean hundreds off their hands.

The old home side is sticking out like a sore thumb now that the video board is up! Not sure what the timeline on putting lipstick on that pig is.

Agreed. Something needs to be done with that seventies era press box. Definitely is an eyesore sitting in viewing distance of the new addition.

Drove by today. The new video board is awesome. I hope they cover up the 4 I beams holding it up with the same color brick as the rest of the school. Next step... rebrick the old press box and update and expand the field house.

is there any word on re-bricking the old home side or will they let it stand as is?

I've heard rumors that it's supposed to be re-bricked. Hopefully they get rid of those blinders they put up behind the seats as well..

Just in passing saying that they will match the brick on the east side.

Anybody else going to the clear bag policy? Most professional teams in all sports have gone to this.

I am disappointed that Tarleton has decided to implement this policy. I didn't realize it until I became a parent of small children. As parent of small children, the diaper bag is just as important as carrying my wallet or phone with me. I don't leave the house without it and the inability to take with me is problematic. You have no idea how many diapers and wipes you are going to use, you have no idea how many pairs of clothes you will cycle through. Will you require a blanket or swaddle to keep them warm.

If your child is breastfeeding, you need to bring a cover because SOME PEOPLE have issues with you doing that in public. If your infant/toddler is not breast feeding, you may need to pack bottles or things because the soda and frito pies from Tarleton concessions is not possible. All of those things add up. You know how to make them fit in your diaper bag. I have no idea what this will do to Tarleton's reentry policy, if I can only bring in a couple of things, can I run back to my car to get the items I had to leave behind when my kid has a blowout?

What it signals to me is that parents with young children shouldn't attend. Tarleton (alumni assoc or Texan club) is okay to take my money as long as I don't bring my kids.

When I shared this information with my wife, she raised the question about not just people with children, but what about the elderly, disabled veterans, or those with special needs (and their caretakers)? Are we not telling those people they can no longer bring in their needed supplies? The infographic floating around social media did not make a distinction.
It was only after reading policy website, that I found "There will be separate entrances at Memorial Stadium to allow for screening of any medically necessary items or equipment not able to fit within the bag policy requirements, as well as media personnel or suite guests. The Clear Bag Policy applies only to 100 and 200 level seating. The Club Level and Suite guests will have any bags screened prior to entry."

The policy seems to alleviate that, but leaves a grey area for Tarleton gatekeepers to decide what is "medically necessary".

The kicker that got me from that post though was, the bag policy only applies to the cheapseats. If you are rich enough to afford a club or suite spot, you are exempt.

Well yes, we wouldn't want to upset the wealthy.
