    Would the people of Fargo support the PSL concept to help get this thing built? Forget the messy details that would need to be worked out between the city and NDSU. Would there be support there?

    There will be no support from the City of Fargo for anything new. Two major water projects are going to take all the dollars that might be available for decades to come. The diversion is #1. Water supply from the Missouri river is #2.

    If some hardcore Bison fan would win a $600 million Powerball jackpot is our only hope.

    Seriously, though, it could be an interesting concept. In Portland, we built a big plaza off of the proceeds of selling brick pavers to pay for it. Much smaller project, but still.

    WTF - Is that an actual thing? If so, I missed it.

    I'm a dork. This has been going on forever. I just don't hear about it anymore since I haven't lived in the area since 1995.

    They just put a shit load of money into to get bathrooms and ADA compliant again. I think some areas are still out of code.

    How about an outdoor stadium and indoor tailgating
    From the movie THE PROGRAM

    Regent Chairman: This is not a football vocational school. It's an institute for higher learning.
    Coach Winters: Yeah, but when was the last time 80,000 people showed up to watch a kid do a damn chemistry experiment? Why don't you stick the bow-tie up your ass?
