haha - people always demonize those who are talented/powerful and are not on their side. ie - Hillary Clinton...I think she's been called Satan a time or two. :p She's officially the Nick Saban of politics!! How many of you conservatives did I just make scream with that comment?

it's this "they'd better be scared" and "bama's back" talk that makes us sound like fools when it doesn't pan out. Nobody is scared until we start kicking butt on the field, and that hasn't happend yet. IMO, we should shut our mouths, be cool, and let our play on the field do our smack...

I guess some folks are just not going to believe it's possible until they see it built. LOL There is PLENTY of room between the current south endzone and Bryant drive. Think about how far the ramps come out from the stadium - This structure probably lines up with the outside edges of those ramps.

See previous posts - Hilton downtown is booked for DragonCon

Re: Atlanta hotels That is DragonCon weekend in downtown Atlanta. http://www.dragoncon.org/ I work at a major downtown hotel and this convention takes up all of Hyatt (host hotel), Marriott and Hilton. Your best bet for downtown is Westin or Omni or some of the smaller ones. Everything...

some people can handle the city, some people prefer "cow towns." :wink:

I live in ATL and work in a major hotel downtown. Downtown is definitely more convenient to the dome and there would be lots of fans there. But for restaurants and nightlife, definitely stay in midtown or Buckhead. Where do you get that Buckhead is "turning bad"? If anything, it's turning...

LOL - well, I have to applaud his ability to do what he wants regardless of what society tells him. btw, mods - i don't think racist undertones would be allowed on here, so maybe the homophobic undertones ("flaggets") should be kept in check as well? Not being PC, just respectful...

:eek2: you been smokin' something?

Re: Searching for Identity This is wikipedia and most of the stuff about Auburn was most likely put up with an AU slant by an AU homer - they are not the largest university in state, Bama is. They are no more "more selective" than Bama. Those are ways AU people try to make themselves stand out...

Would you also like a 60,000 seat stadium? I say take the chairs OUT of the west upper deck and replace them with bleachers. Those fans 'aint special.

Hmmmm, let's see: 1) bring back the band marching into the stadium and playing Yea Alabama to both sides of stadium 2) add field level bleachers in south endzone for students/Yell Crew 3) remove the chain link fence around the field and put up iron (like the barn's, but I've been saying we...

Even at at 28,000, UA will still be smaller than many of the TOP schools in the nation. Ohio State, Michigan, Florida all have 50K + enrollments. LSU and GA both have over 30K. (even though LSU is not a top school) I think many people fail to realize that with growth of student body comes...

the drum major in the pep rally pic is now the proud director of the auburn university marching band. :rolleyes:

Amen to that. UA was stagnate at best with him. Since him, we have been catapulted to among the top three public institutions in the SEC.

Re: South End Zone Expansion There is no big deal. People seem to think that the stadium is closer to Bryant drive than it actually is. They also think that the support structure for an expansion takes up more space than it actually does...

If true, that's fantastic. But considering it's coming from "Clays Bama Page" from a he said, he said article, I'll take with a grain of salt...

What rock have you been under? ;)

The announcer was just confused - the 'story' was that there were over 100K IN AUBURN for the iron bowl. The announcer obviously thought that meant IN the stadium. Just a case of him not paying attention to detail. JH only holds 87K.

Re: South Endzone Expansion update!! If the new expansion is a "mirror" of the NEZ, then the stadium will hold a little over 100,000. Where does the 107,000 figure come in? I think a good way to get more fans in the stadium is to remove the red seats from the west upper deck. There is no...
