Any chance of setting the webcam up again for all us with no life to sit and watch this project?
I've been hoping for the same thing!
Glad to know I'm not the only one without a life! I relished the webcam stream for the turf replacement project a few years ago. My wife thought I had lost my mind :)

Me too. I can’t believe I spent every day watching the BAC construction on the webcam. I’m all in though if they put up a webcam for the scoreboard.

The crane is parked across the street from the stadium. The project about to start.

Trust me the project has been moving forward from the moment MSU gave the contractor the "Notice to Proceed". Sub Contractors have gotten contracts, bond purchased if required, insurance forms submitted, materials ordered, shop drawings underway, permits acquired, underground locate scheduled, and beer drank just to name a few.

KBZK News should train their ‘Bozeman Stadium’ weather cam on the scoreboard area so we can watch it go up.

I didn't even know I was working on this project. Definitely put in some overtime this weekend. You're all welcome!

The camera was pointed in that direction this weekend but I think it’s programmed to take shots from different directions. This pic was from this morning.

Yeah, I can’t see Kagy ever closing. West Grant, near Romney Hall and the new health and fitness complex, has been closed for years now due to the construction of those facilities. I can see Grant closing down permanently but not Kagy.
Heard from some ASMSU people a couple years ago that they were planning on keeping Grant closed permanently after the Fitness Center opens. No idea if that is still the plan
There are drawings up in the SUB currently that show proposed designs for making Grant St. into a walking only area. Not sure on the timing of it or if approved, but there were 3 or 4 different renderings of it.

The Contract Documents state that the project is to be complete by August 1, 2023. I found where Daktronics is to remove the existing video board on Sheet SD1.1. I didn't find any reference to installing the new video board, but I didn't look very long. Either way with the existing gone and project complete by Aug 1, 23 it would appear that we will see the monster on the first game. Otherwise we be up ****** crick.

Any chance the KBZK weather app would have the cam available so I don't have to download it to find out?

The crane that was parked across from the stadium, is gone. It was the one Jackson Contractors was using on the new gym. Sorry kids.

Maybe it’s a simple DIY project that can be done on a weekend. 8)

I installed a 60 inch video board in my home in 20 minutes.
