    Ahh yes, another bisonfan1234 classic.

    However, on a somewhat related note, I saw another major newspaper (one in Seattle) is going to an on-line version only. Greenie and Golic on ESPN Radio were lamenting this fact, talking about how there is nothing better than the morning coffee/newspaper routine.

    How much extra work would be involved for non-football events?

    I'm guessing the field turf has to get covered with plywood or something like that for concerts, monster truck shows, big iron. etc. Wouldn't that make it hard to move the portable seats to the north end for the bball configuration?

    The stuff NAU has can be removed so it would be easier for concerts and what not.

    For the past couple of days the Fargodome has been the world's largest sandbag filling factory. Nice having that smooth concrete floor.

    Doesn't the field turf need a sand base for installation? We already have a ton (actually probably several tons) of sand there. Hmmm...maybe we should just get to installing the new stuff, to save money of course.
