    Any news on dome expansion 1500 more capacity / addition of real suites / more bathrooms, etc. I keep getting another year older and the options discussed 5 years ago continue to gather dust. Meanwhile SDSU now has more crowd capacity and DI appropriate suites. Yep, I know NDSU won the natty this year, but ever heard the term strike while the iron is hot? Wow, where is the leadership? What has Mr Stony Brook done that already wasn't in motion by the previous AD?

    You sound a bit more moldy to me Miss Status Quo. Sorry you don't think the AD along with others at NDSU don't have some responsibility to meet and discuss proposed dome changes and possible timeline to complete given NDSU brings significant income to the dome and city of Fargo. Nine events with close to 19,000 attendance each is a big chunk of the dome's bookings and total attendance for the year!

    I had actually deleted my response because I realized it wasn't worth my time to argue with you. I'm not going to now. Also, not sure why you think I am a "miss" but thanks for trying. I wish you the best and hope your personal situation improves.

    Seems you lost in your weak attempt to "argue" with me. Better luck next time. As for names, excuse me for misunderstanding your user name. I do think the lack of action on dome capacity and outdated suites for who knows how long is a big mistake. Need a plan to get something done by 2020 or maybe 2025? No plans now means nothing will get done for at least 10 years.

    You really think I would use my first name followed by Bison for a user name? Yeah, ok. And really, I am not interested in arguing with you. Again, I posted, and then realized every time you post on this board you are just picking a fight. So, I deleted it. Clearly not quickly enough. I have a demanding job, and a life and have no interest in "arguing" with you. It serves no purpose. Best of luck.

    I think someone mentioned wi-fi earlier. It sure is nice having the free wi-fi at US Bank stadium.
    It's OK to not be OK.

    Yep, especially since cell service is almost unusable in there. That's a lot of bandwidth though. It would probably be roughly equivalent to what NDSU uses today, so not cheap. Would need a sponsor to cover a lot of the ongoing cost.

    Purchasing the actual wireless gear would be a massive investment in itself. I believe NDSU taps into a 10G backbone for the campus network so bandwidth wouldn't be an issue, especially if you throttle individual connections on the wifi, it wouldn't be bad.

    I think the fastest internet in North Dakota is on the NDSU campus, do a speed test at the QBB A.K.A the IAAC for you old schoolers
