    Most of the seats are being installed,,,shaping up. Once the second score board is calibrated, it looks mostly to be putting up advertising signs.

    Yeah- probably a week to finish installation and calibration, advertizing will go up in a matter of days.

    I'm looking forward to the new restaurants being constructed behind the boards, I don't know if that was in this phase or next seasons phase. I like getting into the stadium early to avoid the long lines at the turnstiles

    As to the long lines- part of the plan (next year's I believe)- is to put in more entrances to alleviate the just before kickoff crush. The SW entrance is particularly bad.

    & Yeah, I'm wondering about that too. If you look at the "finished" pictures, there's supposed to be stands to the left of the East Scoreboard. The structural steel is in place- but they'd have to set up supports to pour cement, a multi day project- and then it would take weeks to cure enough to put a few hundred seats on top of it. Though it looks like they have some stuff ready to go underneath it.We'll see.

    Those concrete supports are alreay made. The just put them in on the metal supports....think concrete barricades on the highway, and even if they do pour, the quick cure concretes these days are ready to go in a day or two. It is on time. If it wasn't, you'd see some 3rd shift action.

    As for the concessions...I think that is a part of next years project.

    The east endzone board is up and being calibrated.....seats being installed. It may take 2-3 days for the board to be operational like the last......we are on schedule.

    Yup, 'Peen- you were right- they went with prefab on the seat supports.

    The east endzone board is now showing images, and being put through it's paces. The smaller square board is up, and the small rectangular screen is still not up. Looks to be proceeding niecly.

    pretty soon those screens will be showing highlights of running backs running wild, qbs going crazy, receivers floating in air...

    and then for our away fans their WRs getting pumMelled, QB getting smashed and RB getting fake grass in his teeth.

    LET'S GO BROWNS!!

    Kind of a shame these huge HD tv's will be showing a group of male drummers instead of scantily clad female crowd motivators.

    Oh yes the early part of the season brings out the best of the scantily clad I can't wait. I just picked up two more seats for the opener today for my daughter and her friend. She has been begging me to let her use my season tickets, I figured I'd just buy her a set instead of giving up mine. And yes she and her friend will be scantily clad for all of you that would like to know.

    Oh no one of the small video boards was removed on the west side I wonder what happened, maybe it was stolen by a lions fan

    Want me to take a guess? It was blocking sight lines behind it. I said it earlier- unless I'm mistaken, some of those seats beneath the west scoreboard are going to have partially obstructed views. Shades of old Muni.

    I was wondering about that board myself. In looking at it now it looks like they still have a lot of work behind it and took it back down to allow the work to finish without possible damage to the board. Looks like they put it up to make sure it was working and get calibtated. As for sight lines, lets wait and see how it finishes up before we start worrying about some strangers line of sight

    Looks like the west side missing board is back in place. It's cool to see the field being prepped also.

    Those new I beams will bring back memories from the old stadium ie.. seats behind poles. Who in here remembers those seats behind poles at the old stadium? My old seats were behind those damn poles at the old stadium. Lower deck 35 yard line, closed end. Everyone had to lean to see around them. Ah the memories.

    Time for a bump. Looks like everything is in order- watch out for the construction dust tomorrow. And it sure does look like there are going to be some partially obstructed views in the West endzone.

    Yeah. Remind me never to buy nosebleeds in the West endzone. I'd be sitting behind a pole like I did at the old Municipal Stadium.

    I hope those new escalators in the east end are working, it'll be like valet parking right to my seats. GO BROWNS!!!!
