Looks like the old, old stuff at App that had the Flying Yosef at the 50.

It didn't look nearly as bad as it looks on ESPN. Cool little stadium.

Nice stadium and the seats are very close to the field. Definitely loud when App fans were doing the APPPP- STAAATE chant and when CCU was on offense!!!

The seats may have been close, but the camera looked like it was mounted in Socastee.

I thought the EXACT same thing. Still think grass green should be mandated.

I was wondering if it looked better in person. Certainly teal would be better than the RED stuff that Eastern Washington has. That made me nauseous trying to watch a game! The teal just make me feel like the color on my TV was messed up. Just doesn't look "right".

I look forward to seeing what Brooks stadium looks like after the buildout on the West stands. It's already a very nice venue.

We were in an upper section (203) and my wife loved the individual seats with cup holders...she wants those at The Rock.

I know you are exaggerating, VA, but we have never been broke. We just had priorities in different places. Athletics took a back seat during Borkowski's term and a front porch (as he used to allude to) under Chancellor Peacock's and various eras in between. For example, science was major driver under Chancellor Thomas. Now we appear to be in an era of both athletics and academics. In my opinion, we are where we should be in that regard.

Agreed. It’s now a balance with academics receiving the priority, and athletics receiving a fair shake. The way it should be. We are an institution of higher learning, after all.

Glad it looked better in person. On tv it reads as off-green.
I couldnt tell whether the teal turf made the lousy video feed look worse or if the lousy video feed wasn’t doing the turf any favors. Probably a combo of both.

Yeah, when anyone in Conway called in a missing person Saturday night, the first place the police checked was the concessions line at CCU lol.

There was no second level on the Press Box side. It was just like our East Stands except the walkway connected to the end zone seating.
