    Bah! The future of intro videos is holograms and/or lasers.

    I expect NDSU to be a leader in this because of playing indoors.

    Yep, that picture made me realize if we put them on those sideline trusses rather than the endzones they could be about 220' wide. That's assuming they don't weigh much or cost more.

    They are going to need to make it darker so it doesn't light the place up! I propose as a first step to get rid of the animated lurching bison.

    The screen at Sports Authority Field in Denver is actually one screen that they can show videos and images on the whole thing, but when they show replays its a smaller view with scores and stats on the sides.

    If you are concerned about added weight, just put two arches over the dome with supports that hang down through the existing roof.

    You could even paint them gold so they look something like this and open up a sponsorship from McDonalds.

    It's OK to not be OK.

    Only if they are in the shape of lightning bolts....otherwise, fuck that. No matter what, we must consult the napkin first.

    Hopefully they were smart enough to realize this themselves...then again, tube tvs were replaced in 2015.
