I am not impressed. Those 2 open areas of palm trees and the little beach thing look terrible.

I think it looks pretty cool.  But then again, bleachers around the track would look good to me at this point.  ;D

Yeah, the old maxim "beggars can't be choosers" comes to mind. But how much would it really cost to complete the bowl?

Re: New stadium drawings from Ted's blog

I am just glad to see news of any sort! And if this how we start out, so be it, just get it done!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S. - Not to bad looking anyway! And a hell of a lot better than Lockhart, I played in that pos in high school in the 70's and watched the Strikers there later, it really is starting to look old (never was nice just passable!)

The whole beach/boardwalk thing is a little weird but then again… I don't think I've ever seen that witha football stadium. So it's certainly unique.

I'm glad they didn't eliminte the two endzones as well.

Whatever. At this point I just want them to build it.

Instead of closing out the horseshoe with a set of bleachers, why don't we build a huge sand dune and the sorority girls all get tickets to lay out on the beach during the games in bikinis…we'd be a massive hit! Talk about being able to recruit…"we have a beach at our football stadium, yup, it's November, and people are in bathing suits watching the game." I don't think there is a kid up north that could turn that down when the coach goes to visit with 3 feet of snow on the ground.

What happens when none of us are actually watching the game?  I am wayyyyy to immature to have tailgating and girls in bikinis at the same event.

Teambeer is the most knowledgeable FAU sports fan I know, way smarter than me.

Let me just say that the pictures are slightly strange to me, but whatever.  I do really really like the theme of ocean/beach they are trying to have a little bit in these early concept drawings.  Having boardwalks would be cool, then have steel drummers, margaritas and rum runners, some beach volleyball tailgating, and yeh a beach section that would go to sororities would be quite nice as well.
