Idea for the NW gap in the stands.

Everyone complains about the gap where the new part of the stands don't quite mee up with the old partt.

It's necessary because of sightlines, but I've read a lot of complaints about how it looks.

Well, here's an ides:

I had a thought that they might put up a "roof" or canopy (maybe burnt orange with a white longhorn logo on it?) thet filled that gap, they could then put first aid, or vendors or picnic tables or something in the area under it.

That could look good, fill that gap, and be functiona (providing some shade for at least part of the day). If they ever enclose the other end, there would probably be a similar gap, and they could do the same thing there.

My photoshopping skills suck, or I'd put up an image about what I'm talking about, but it should be easy to imagine.

Anyway, what do y'all think of that idea?
 
i think it's an awesome idea. But I think they should run a mini alumni center in there so we can get booze. hell, they could even make it a chill tent w/misters and fans and free water for the the august/early september games.
 
I was thinking the same thing... how cool would a sit-down super-casual restaurant or something up there have been? Or a bar. Or whatever. Just some other functional place where seeing the field is not that important.

A canopy or sign or scoreboard or something might work, too.
 
Make the West-facing side of that patio have a simple guard rail or something, just not a solid wall, and you'd get one hell of a view of campus. Good idea.

I admire jmatt's creativity, but if Belmont puts a canopy up there it won't have a Longhorn logo on it....my money is on a Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, American Airlines or American Outfitters logo.

Think ad space man.....
