    Very true. I've seen a few larger projects where as-builts aren't written in the specs, but typically on a project of that size they always are.

    Interesting numbers. Tailgating + DI + decent records = Big Attendance.

    Tailgating + DI + Championships = Huge Attendance
    Hadn't update this for a while (i.e. three years.)

    Attendance is down?? Another obvious sign that we do not need, and will never, ever need to consider other stadium possibilities to increase capacity. There is simply zero demand to attend NDSU football games. We couldn't even sell out that one playoff game! Should probs play at Fargo south

    Yeah, a six-year low. I was kind of surprised this wasn't a big media story. Does KFGO have a tip line? You could get a free hat or something.

    2000 more seats please.

    Isn't there a plan in place to take out the useless press box on the north end as far as I can tell anytime I've been at various events it is never used. That would gain a few hundreds of seats. Then in all the additions talk about putting in suites on the west side upper level of the addition and doing some mods there would gain them some seats too. Thought all around was like 1500-2000.

    As much as I would love a 25-30k stadium, I would settle for just 20,000 FFD.... it always seems silly to say "PACKED HOUSE of under 20k!"

    I feel like 20K is milestone for some reason- bring on the extra 1,300 seats!
    1. The FCS was the Best option for NDSU for a very long time.
    2. As a general rule- the FCS sucks at football and has proven that is not committed to football at all.
    3. It's time to go FBS

    20K would merit its own thread on this stadium forum, which seems to be the foremost stadium forum out there: http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=857748



    Adding 1300 may be a bit of a stretch though. That's more than an entire current section.

    20k just sounds better. Its more impressive sounding to other conferences as well if we ever make a move. 18900 just sounds small
