I see what you are saying, but if you have a seat next to the steps/platforms it is going to feel like a wall. Also, it looks like on the south side of the steps/platforms there is a wall. I guess my point is it is they are making it very difficult to move from the existing part of the stadium and the SEZ.

My high school played its football games at Kimbrough Stadium (West Texas State U in Canyon). The home crowd and visitors both sat in the west stands, with a single rope dividing the stands in half, north & south (Canyon folks on the south, visitors on the north). So far as I know, no one ever crossed the DMZ straddling the two sides. Now that WTAMU (as it's now called, unfortunately) is constructing its own stadium on campus (Kimbrough is located about 2 miles north of town), Canyon ISD will have Kimbrough all to itself. But the Canyon Eagles will have to share the stadium with the Randall Raiders (the other Canyon ISD high school, located in Amarillo). Boo!
Why is the (digitally rendered) LHB wearing white trousers in this illustration?
It must be the first game of the season.
OK then. But I must point out that the LHB was in full uniform for the 2016 Notre Dame game (I was there and my daughter was a freshmen in the LHB. I’ll have to ask her if they ever performed in tees and shorts during her 3 seasons in the band).It must be the first game of the season.
For the first game or two, while it's still hot, the band doesn't wear their full uniform and instead wears polo shirts, khaki shorts, and a ballcap.
IIRC that game was a night start on national TV.
That pic must have been taken before or after the 3 seasons my daughter was in the LHB (2016, 2017, 2018). Her response, when I asked her about performing in that particular wardrobe, was "LOL no." (She added that sometimes they got to take off their coats when they were in the stands.)It must be the first game of the season.

Steve, look closely at the indentations on the steel and you will see they line up with the asile markers on the concrete.
what is capacity once done?Things are beginning to come into focus. If you look hard at the picture below you can see the outline of the Longhorn.
Also, the seating rows on the East side stands are almost complete (sorry for those who believed that there would be just viewing platforms there). In addition, outside walls are starting to go up.
Finally, and just for Sabre, the backbone for the new jumbotron is complete.
Thank you.
Good News - Longhorn almost Complete:
Bad News - Goliathtron is huge:
According to the renderings, the area immediately surrounding the screen will be a black border with the remainder of each edge of the suites will be advertising boards presumingly connected to the ribbon message boards around the stadium.
They obviously were planning on games this season thus the early work on the screen and the play clock under the screen.
to be perfect? bigger than Kyle?
Never mind...it was a joke.
No, not me.
