and it could potentially hold concerts as well
Aside from football, isn't that what the stadium is for?
My two favorite teams are FAU, and who ever is beating FIU!

Initially that was the idea when it was pitched as a dome. The rationale for the dome aside from providing nice conditions for athletic events was to provide an enclosed venue that would limit sound exposure (i.e. noise) for people other than the intended audience. With the stadium being open air I am sure that concerts will be held there but I would also imagine that some Boca residents will complain about the "noise" created by the concerts.

Well, Boca does have concerts at Mizner Park, so I don't think that's a relevant argument.

Yeah, there wont be a house within at least a mile or two from the stadium…that argument doesn't make any sense.
Teambeer is the most knowledgeable FAU sports fan I know, way smarter than me.

Although I don't think the sound will travel that far, there ARE houses just east from FAU on Spanish River plus there are apartments east of FAU.
In that sense, the stadium will be ideally-located. IF we continue to develop that forest land back there (over time, I know conservation issues exist) then it will be nearly at the center of campus instead of off to one side like the Swamp.

Are the Mizner Park concerts for 10,000 or more people??

I am not making the argument. When the dome was planned part of the justification was for concerts and a "sound-proof" venue. They were talking about BIG concerts, not something that would draw a few 100 fans like a Mizner Park deal. Imagine having a big name band with a serious sound system and 10,000-20,000 people. It gets loud.
