Below is the link for pics of the almost completed TCF Bank Stadium. Basically the landscaping around the stadium is all that is left to do. Thought some would like seeing these pics. Seeing it in person is unbelievable.

I like the look of the outside of the stadium. Its the classic look of an older venue.

absolutely beautiful stadium. It's been a couple months since I saw it in person and even then it was impressive. Now that they've began putting on the finishing touches it's really coming together. I would love to see a game there but I have a feeling that tickets will be hard to come by when it first opens.

Good pictures. Picture #12 show a bank of letters/numbers on the side of part of the structure. What do those represent? I had some guesses but can't tell with certainty.

It's a video board facing the street/incoming crowds. The numbers and stuff is just a test pattern

Something like TCF Stadium, but without the continued endzone seating (basically make it just two decks on each side) would be PERFECT for us to build on that vacant land just south of the Alien Technologies building on 18th St. Maybe seating 27-30,000 people, and a HUGE Godzillatron on the south end!!

Just got back from U of M...the new stadium just looks sweet. They are still just finishing up some last minute brickwork on some fencing, but it's 99% done. They'll need to install the semi-permanent seatbacks for whichever season-ticket holders want them (for $42 for the season) after Aug 15. Its going to be amazing to go to games here! That scoreboard on the open end side is ridiculously huge!

Does the Visitor score side hold 1 more digit?? :hide: :D
