Our first choice is the firm that designed NC State's www.daviskane.com/projects/ncsu-wendell/NC State Athletics wanted to renovate the existing Murphy Football Center locker room with an updated appearance and feel to appeal to the modern-day collegiate athlete. The renovation began with a study and visioning, resulting in a computer-generated “fly-through” 3D model of the proposed layout. The 3D images helped in NC State’s final approval of a design concept. The renovation included over 4,700 square feet of space, including new lockers, lighting, finishes, and state-of-the-art audio/visual technology. Unique “wow-factor” graphics were also developed and installed as part of the project. They seem to do great work, I hope they get a shot at the project.

TVs outside the concession areas and inside the restrooms would be an affordable and immediate fix. There is no reason they can't have those installed before the next home game. We still should try to install these for the upcoming season. Would improve the in-game fan experience tremendously.

Why not sand blast and paint the stands first and then address the TVs . it'll take them "forever" to paint the stands, but its relatively "inexpensive" to install tv's. no reason why they couldn't install tv's immediately or if not, certainly before the season starts...

I wish those that seem to know what should and shouldn't be done, when things need to be done, etc. we're on the inside to see/know what's happening/not happening.

That doesn't make sense. Why install televisions and have a rusted out background.

I think the TVs will have more of an immediate impact to the in-game fan experience than painting the bleachers - if I had to choose one.
The rusted bleachers are basically just an eyesore; not really a safety issue.
The TVs could make going to the concession stands and the restroom areas more enjoyable.
Both should be done ASAP, but I would put more of a priority on the TVs since A&T can rarely walk and chew gum at the same time.

That doesn't make sense. Why install televisions and have a rusted out background. the rust primarily appears "beneath" the seats and most folk don't even notice it unless the stadium is relatively empty. point being, have you seen how long it is taking our admins to paint memorial stadium? so my point is, if we wait until "after" the stands have been painted, we may "never" see tv's in the concourse and concession stands based on how long its taking to paint the baseball stadium. tv monitors are relatively "inexpensive" and can be installed in less than a week. no reason to hold tv monitors hostage until "after" the stands get painted. i mean, it ain't like they can't paint the stands "after" the monitors are installed. the monitors will be located where currently no rust exists, so it will not cause any problems to paint the stands "after" installing new tv monitors first...

I agree with having TVs would be a great temp addition until we figure out what we want to do with concessions and the stadium itself. We have to get our fans to continue to buy into the program. Having it to where we can still watch the game while in line goes a long way. or at bare min have speakers in the bathroom to hear the game.

If I had my way, I would have a Sound Stage ( even if its only a DJ) until it gets too cold. Man...The Stadium has so much potential that it's not even funny. Sinage, JumboTron interactions, More Aggie Track Promotion ideas. We often forget that we Host some nice Events There.
How about that Self driving Shuttle running from The War to the Lower Gate.

I like the idea of having the radio call on under bleachers and in the bathrooms.

(40,000 Applications has increased my Prestige whenever I rock my gear). Had the bulldog head golf shirt on this weekend in Vegas while checking in to the hotel. Got a shout out from an Asian couple. "NCA&T right?". I Acknowledged they were right and we had a long conversation. #AggiePride
