It's funny, I've been watching every detail of the BAC construction and this one thing stood out to me and really got my minor OCD worked up. I thought the upper photo was the finished product and I couldn't understand how they could have put all those metal pieces holding in the windows so uneven. I knew every time I walked by that dang building I would notice how uneven they looked and it would forever drive me nuts. I was going to write something on BN but I knew I would be flamed if I did. Thankfully, they put trim over those metal pieces and I won't have to look at them anymore. I feel so relieved. I know, crazy. :D

I thought that the bobcat head looked really good (which I believe was just installed this week)

That made me laugh. Being personally aware is a good counter to OCD.

Okay, sports fans, here is my final BAC construction video, 283 days of fun and frustrating moments. I lost count how many times that camera was moved while I was trying to document the construction. You will see the pictures shift from time-to-time because of the camera being moved. I've tried to crop photos to minimize that movement, but towards the end of construction, it just proved impossible. Anyway, Go Cats!

Fin!

Thank you. That was awesome. Really loved the theme music.

Hardy absolutely destroyed that guy on the kick return, good lord! He didn’t even tackle him, just ran right through him. Ha

A few plays before that, the same guy tried to hit Pickering on a catch over the middle and got the worst of the collision. Safe to say, that guy had a bad day.

That tackle on Pickering looked a little scary with how Pickering flipped and rolled but he got right up while the other guy laid there awhile.
