Stewart Stadium Upgrades

I have brought this topic up at the beginning of each season for a few years. I look for upgrades that are being done to improve fan experience at the games. The only thing I am aware of currently, is the remodeling of the mens and womens restrooms on the westside stands. This will actually be a major upgrade! I am still waiting for something to be done on the eastside stands. It would be fairly cheap and easy to put in some concession stands, eating area and restrooms up above the eastside stands. Its actually flat up there and pretty deep.

We will continue to wait for the North Endzone Plaza for a few more years. I heard the money that was set aside for the Plaza was used on the indoor facility. :-D

One thing I have been wishing for for quite some time, are championship banners.... I think it is really cool to walk into a stadium/arena/center to see banners of tradition and accomplishments. This also has to have physiological things to do with what players think. They see the championship banners and think, "man, I am playing for a school full of tradition," or, "man its been a few yeas since we last won a championship, we need another banner soon!" In high school, we would go play teams that had so many banners for region and state teams. Just playing there was intimidating. I know we dont have too many banners, but lets show them off with pride to players, fans and recruits!

Anyone one else know of any new changes that are in progress? How about some personal things you'd like to see done to improve stadium experience?
 
It's nice to hear the west side bathrooms are being renovated. I agree that some permanent concession stands would be a nice upgrade. Also, a new audio system with a big sub would have a good payoff for the money I would guess. I have been to several MLS stadiums and have noticed its not about the size of the stadium its about the quality that makes a top notch fan experience. Does anybody know if Stewart Stadium has a master plan the school is working toward? Maybe a final design with phased in projects would get donors to visualize what the stadium could become.
 
I just walked in and around te stadium. I have never seen it look so nice. I love how they have covered up the concrete around the edges. I thought it looked good last year, but looks better this year. The west bathrooms I highly doubt will be completed my game day. :( the men's don't even have framing done all the way. Not sure why they aren't done yet?

Rumor has it (from talhad) that the completion date was set for July 32nd butt the workers had the runs and lots of Hershey squirts so it caused a lot of down time since they kept using the same john they were supposed to be renovating.

Bengal hater and fogdog are on that crew.
 
Anyone have pics to share of the upgrades?

And, yes, it's not a Weber State game without making at least one trip to the piss wall. :lol: :lol: :lol:
 
Okay, again its that time of the year to begin talk regarding stadium upgrades!! :)
I drove past the stadium today, and I noticed some type of digging/construction going on at the top of the east side bleachers. It appears that something is being done above the little press box. Anyone know what the plan is for up there?

Wishful thinking is that it's some actual bathrooms to replace the cesspool up there now. Some concession stands up there would be welcomed as well.
