Fargo approves December 5th special election for Fargodome expansion, remodel

I kind of wondered about that. That might also mean no one "campaigning for a yes vote" at tailgating.

Thats bullshit. I could do it legally in 2 weeks. It's a public facilit on public property. It's no different than standing on the sidewalk. Politicians are in the tailgating lot all the time. Same is true with petitioners

I looked over the website of this committee - Fargodome Reimagined, and really the content is very comprehensive and convincing. The trick is to get people to read it and go through it and then VOTE.

It's so comprehensive, they forgot pictures

At the next home game, perhaps you could be an ambassador for the Vote Yes campaign and go through the tailgating lot, giving reasons for the "yes" vote. You are a very convincing, highly intelligent and sensitive and thoughtful man and people will listen to you for sure.

But the committe for Fargodome reimagined is independant of the Fargodome. Sort of the same as Teammakers and NDSU. Not sure why they cant take advertising dollars

My understanding is Teamakers can promote a "yes vote." All of us yes people should write letters to the editor. I plan to. And talk this up to your neighbors and ask what they think and if they give erroneous reasons (it would only benefit Bison football for example) then you have an opportunity to clarify and correct them. Takk min venn.

Does a yes vote hurt our fbs chances?

Financially it helps

1) More premium seats with higher TM dues on the 3rd level club seating and SE corner party deck. The changes will slightly increase capacity

2) More revenue by tripling food/beverage vendors

3) More revenue from the convention center to host TM events on gameday. They could even have indoor tailgates

The obvious is more people will want to go if the experience is better. Casual fans don't want to wait 20 minutes for a shitty hot dog and beer and then wait another 10 minutes to pee. With more entrances, they will get in faster too. We havent even talked about the hotel

It could even help recruiting a bit by having a modern looking stadium. It's a perception thing

and if approved does it 99% kill my 40,000 NDSU on campus open air stadium that NDSU OWNS 100% and ALL THE REVENUES FROM?? or 60%

In looking at the drawings and other reasons to vote "yes," why would anyone vote "no." It is beyond me. It is a spectacular idea.

please tell me they are smart enough to do a Skywalk from SHAC to New SouthEast Corner of the Dome.
