Are you not going to be able to see the field from there?

And moving the pitcher's mound to shallow right center is interesting...

From the renderings you will be standing up there on the Death Star.

I believe the circle is at a higher elevation than the LFL will be. There will be a small set of stairs between the two. So there should be no issue with not being able to see over the wall.

From what I heard, there will be ladders available....

Similar to what the worker is currently standing on, that allows you to peak over the right field circle. Of course you must rent the ladders for a premium price at the stadium.

Will the ladders be rented from multiple vendors or are they being single-sourced? *

Should be a great view from the RF circle. I'm glad we acknowledged that was where 75% of the fans entered the stadium and made it a grand entrance.


-The spot down the RF line is being formed up for the tarp inset

-The outfield wall being formed up is the tired student area.

-They just poured the footing from the front edge of the lounge spots this morning.

-The small, square concrete footings will support a composite deck between the lounges and the fence all the way around, similar to what was there before. I'm not sure why it is going to be done this way. I guess it's at least one feature they could keep from the old lounges, and it's more pleasing than everything just being cold, gray concrete.

-As you can see, RF will now be brown dirt, LF red dirt, and home plate will remain turf.**

Wonder if I could just set up a tri-pod deer stand to see over the wall?***

It will be easier to see over that wall then they put the metal bleachers back behind that area.

Any idea where the "tired" alumni will sit? ** ;)

Rather than speculating, I choose to wait until the finished product to make any comments.

Word is that there will be a "no standing or excessive cheering" section behind the 3rd base dugout. The section will only be open from the 2nd to 7th innings when the outside temperature is between 70 and 80 degrees.
