Oh. Does that mean someone saw some deers on the tarmac also?

 

All I'm saying is that until Pat Moran says we're going to see stadium renderings, I won't believe a goddamn thing I read about it.

On a more serious note: be concerned with the failing Community Benefits Agreement (CBA) negotiations. If they screw that up, the new stadium is dead. And we all know where a dead stadium deal leads.

 

PS: The CBA is disgusting. It's every special interest group under the sun trying to get their slice of the pork.

It’s going to be some form of offshoot of that Tottenham stadium built by the same company. It’s similar to the questionnaire renderings given out asking about seat section pricing and needs. Note the promised multiple straight up and down deck tiers, the deeper high end zone seats, and the partial covering. Reality is they could straight out copy the full design and save $$$$. It seats 62,850. It was built for 1.2 billion pounds which is…. Wait for it , 1.4 billion US $. So by taking the existing plans you could replicate this and it’s LOUD. You could even tighten it and raise it a bit because you don’t truly need that wide soccer pitch field in Buffalo.

Price of materials has risen exponentially since that stadium was built so that needs to be factored in.

Hopefully whoever decided on the zig zag pathways and perimeter giant boulders, have nothing to do with the new stadium. 

 

Those pathways were designed to allow fans to easily outrun any loose alligators on the property.

Still miss seeing people trying to climb the muddy hill on the way out of the stadium. Good entertainment. Was unfortunately the highlight of many games for about a decade 🤦🏻‍♂️

Yeah, I'm getting impatient like everyone else waiting to see what the new stadium will look like... 

 

Really hoping the over hang is more translucent with a bit more architectural design to it - like this:

New open-air Roughriders stadium will come with a ‘roof-ready’ option

Instead of a dark "roof" like this:

 

 

I would also be thrilled if they just replicated Tottenham's stadium:

Thanks for sharing these images. They’re a great representation of what can be done these days. Populous is known for some pretty contemporary design work. I’m guessing this will not be your grandmother’s stadium.

Agreed but the price of labor, the price acquiring land in London is much more expensive. Also, materials are never cheap in Britain. For instance a “gallon” of gas equivalent right now is over $8 US in Britain and is traditionally double that of the US. So you can’t assume you know the price of their costs. Just saying using the exact same blueprint saves 10s of millions.

Jerry Jones company overseeing the stadium project just doesn’t feel right to me. Only time will tell if they do a good job, but…

 

F Jones and F the Cowboys. 

We've assured that there will be no giant video board to punt balls into, so we're good in that regard

 

Whether or not the Sun will blinding our players' eyes remains to be seen.....

I've always thought more stadiums should be built this way - so many stadiums high vertically also means far way horizontally.  Also with longer overhangs more seats below are protected.  Cost is an issue I'm sure 

When I use the word “Stacked” I’m almost always not referring to stadium builds😁

So here is my question about the covered area over the seats.  All the ones we have seen are not in snowey areas.  If anyone has seen the metal roofs that are popular now. Snow when it warms up a little will just slide off and crash to the floor.  How will a covered seat area be able to stop the snow from sliding down and potentially falling on someone from high up?  It has to be something they have thought of right?

I’ll have to defer to the experts.

Simple: The roof doesn’t slope towards the interior of the stadium. It slopes towards the perimeter. Remember that the bigger problem is rain, not snow. If you don’t want the snow sliding into the spectators, you definitely don’t want rain ‘sliding’ off. Trust me, it won’t be a problem. 👍

I expected it to slope outwards but will there be a perimeter so you cant really be right next to the stadium on the outside?  For safety reasons?

My ex-wife and I are "very close" to patching things up.  I'll keep everyone posted. :D

 

That's not what she told me last night in bed.

The Carrier Dome has a "lip" around the perimeter of the roof, where rain and snow would funnel down to, then go into drains.
