I installed a 60 inch video board in my home in 20 minutes.
Exactly, no sweat…I mean really how hard can it be?

Always waiting on this stuff sucks!! We should have a dedicated webcam that watches over the stadium 24/7.

Don’t get too excited. That was probably a mistake and they meant to put August 1, 2024.

Anyone know if there has been anything happening with the old scoreboard yet? If they want this done by August, you would think they would at least be taking the old one down by now.

You can't start to demo the old one until the contract is awarded and progress on materials is on hand to start.

Clearly you have not attended many home games. With how frustrating that scoreboard is, the fact they never show replays…..I could have that thing demolished in an hour.

No progress as of today. I am hearing some rumblings of a snafu in the works. Anyone else got any info?...you would think it should be started by now.
No news is not good news at this point.
