Why do we seem to have some orange seats but mostly gray seats?

Different tier of seating for donations:

"Field Club"

 

The seats above the Longhorn are also a different tier of seating

then you have the boxes/suites

 

 the bleacher tier

 

 

One thing I never noticed until now was the columns pictured here are shaped like the logo....whomever said we have logo envy is correct. 

 

@Zeus how do these look in person?

I think some of the backrests had some sort of burnt orange cover on them. Looks like those were picked up and all the seats in those sections are gray now.

They are uncomfortable my dude. But I guess you can bring a little pillow or something and keep it in your little box lol. The seats are also removable, they are heavy but aren't connected to anything so I'd expect them to be replaced at some point. Honestly that whole seating area was dissapointing from my work standpoint. The lounge behind it is fucking badass and the patios above are awesome. I just don't understand why they went with this style of seating there at all it's silly. The armrest/cupholders fold up so you can kind of snuggle your wife and kids which is cool, but you will need a spine transplat after doing so for 10 mins.

[Zeus 5950]

Yeah those columns/girders wrapped to look like the logo are gonna be sweet. They weren't done when I visited. I'll see if I can get a picture of em complete.

 

[Zeus 5950]

Suite with some gnarly stone bar counter. Forgot I took this one

That would just make the south tunnel/goalpost offset even more noticeable.

Pull a panel, do some magic, put it back. No biggie.

Seriously though I think they are waiting for all the guys with hammers and boom lifts to GTFO then they will make the screen game-ready.

What’s up with what looks like a dummy in a red hat sitting in front of the green thing?  Looks like it’s wearing a circa late 1970s early 1980s heavy metal concert shirt.

Yes - I work projects also and do know  how those type of finish out schedules go.  Simple obvious things tend to wait to the last minute but drive you crazy every time you walk past it.

I got fuckin' blinders on to anything that isn't related to my job. 

If not I'd go crazy at all the little shit I see all day. Poor architects are responsible for the big big punchlists of all that.

That black mesh border with the off centered lettering above the video board needs to get gone in a hurry.

Why didn't they just put:

 

DKR Texas |______| Memorial Stadium


The longhorn logo was stupid there IMO.

[Bob Lives! 900]

Anyone walking by the southwest corner today? That had the most work left, at least as far as exterior goes.

Can someone check the Southwest entrance with this new stuff and see if they left open the climbable crack on the old south west end of the stadium?  I have seen pictures that seem to show it’s still there.  I hope so, classic 5.8 hands with tape. Possibly the last DKR route left. 😢❤️

Yep.  You're looking at the top of the hood.  His t-shirt says "union (iron)workers" with a picture of SRV and the Austin skyline with a bunch of cranes.

(Edit: I see this has been addressed already).

I imagine people are supposed to line up in front of this for a photo-op. Might go well.  Might not.

One thing's for sure: they are a humorless lot in CS and very serious about tradition.
