    Default Fargodome Expansion

    I was listening to UNI sportwriter Gary Rima today

    http://onpressrow.com/test/2016/09/2...-tavern-grill/

    around 25:15 he is saying Fargodome will be remodeled and seating capacity will be increased to around 30,000?

    Purple or not, I think they should expand the dome. "Dear AD Matt Larson tear down those walls"

    The radio guy must have seen the plans for the west side addition which would add suites way up top. Problem is that was just an estimate and at most it would increase capacity to 20k but give the dome added convention space.

    I don't like the idea because they don't utilize the full length for suites. If your going to do a small section, go all the way from goal line to goal line.

    I heard we will simply replace the columns with SDBison, TAB, Tony, and EndZoneQB since they are the pillars of NDSU football fandom.

    If these clowns are the pillars of NDSU football fandom, then the rest of us need to step up our game.

    TAB = fashion-faux pas attention whore
    SDBison = hard-hat wearing, Jagbomb swilling attention whore
    Tony = wildlife encounterin' attention whore
    EndZoneQB = whore

    LOL........Given the situation in ND I don't see a new stadium in my lifetime even if I live another 35 years. We are stuck with the dome forever as those in power are happy to keep things the same. Imagine over the years if most every FBS team after 10 years of growth and 50% more than demand than capacity for tickets just decided to stay at 20,000......or 30,000........or 40,000. The biggest stadium would be 60,000 and the average closer to 30,000.

    You had the wrong Tony; fixed it for ya. Any other Tony's who used to frequent Bisonville are dead to me. (Yet another shot to try to get Tatanka to come out of hiding.)

    Could probably fit 30,000 in the rows had the same legroom as Kinnick Stadium and we used bleachers instead of chairs.
    It's OK to not be OK.
