SHAC Construction Updates

Question:

Why doesn't the wood floor extend further on the West side of the court. Won't the exposed concrete floor look bad? What am I missing?

Also why doesn't the wood floor extend to cover the cut-out areas on the SE and NE sides of the court by the angled seating area? Again the concrete floor is exposed, right?

Guessing that the wood floors are the 3 practice court areas. The concrete floor may get some sort of covering(probably not this year??) to try to blend it in? Wood floors are spendy so if you're trying to enhance things that are best done while constructing that probably could be a reason. They can airways go back and dress it up later.

You step a couple feet out of bounds on the west side and you step off the wood. Not good imo. I hope there's some sort of extension to the floor.

Well it doesn't look great when the arena is empty but would we rather have them spend the money on the new scoreboard, replacing the ugly orange seats up top, or on an unnecessary 3rd basketball court that the bleachers will roll over? (when we have a world class practice facility) Don't have unlimited money but I'm sure we can fix it later. Well probably see the scorers table sit there. Hope they can lay something down so it looks better

They would for sure have to put something down at least along the edge of the court just for safety reasons alone....I've sprained an ankle just stepping on a big crack in a sidewalk before...

Note to FARGODOME staff that read bisonville: do you see how nice green seats look?

I'm guessing there will be something to "cover" the concrete, just not basketball floor quality wood, that stuff is expensive. If I remember right the wood floor is slightly recessed into the concrete too... But I could be wrong there.

Only seems like a lot of room now. Once the press tables are tbere with chairs behind them, it wont seem that bad im guessing.

The seats were not rolled all the way out either. I sat down and could barely get my legs in and the NDSU person said that is not how it will be as it will roll out further

Why wouldn't they have them rolled all the way our? It's an open house. Wouldn't you want to show how nice and comfortable it is now?
