Rupp question

[ukwes21]

Went to the game on Friday and haven't been in Rupp since before the construction. I hope they are not done because besides the new exterior, the concourse and restrooms are still old and need updated. Are they going to do more interior work to the concourse and restrooms? I mean you walk in through the new entrances and then get inside Rupp and it's still looks old.

They are actually going to put the old multi colored seats back in

I have no idea what all they will do to the interior yet but, I agree, it does still look pretty old yet. The restrooms, in particular, are really dated. They still have those same old faucets that you have to turn with one hand while trying to wash the other hand then switch hands to turn the water on and wash the other. Whoever invented that faucet should have been shot, lol. Just a joke of a system. They are still doing a lot of work on the end of the arena where the Lexington Center (boy, do I still miss that for pregame area during the cold/wet days) so I think they still have a good deal of work to do. The concourse around the arena doesn't appear to have changed very much so far and I thought expanding them was one of the objectives of the restoration project too. Maybe they still will.

Loved the orange. Whose idea was that?

I think once the exterior is finished, the interior work starts after this basketball season is over.

They need to get rid of the damn bank logo ono the floor, looks like absolute garbage.

On another note, why not have a sweet throwback court like little brother does? The old UK logo with the wildcat would be so sick

EDIT: So apparently, we are slated to get a new court design in the coming years.. Let's hope it's something actually cool and not a checkerboard eye soar, that Barney seems to enjoy so much

Your right about the floor. The big bank logo does look bad.

They're only about halfway done...I think they finish it after next season.

I would like to see an image of the state of Kentucky in the middle of the court, like Memorial Coliseum.

Can you guys just sit while you take a piss in the stalls? No wonder our fans are in the stands, their aim is terrible. Not gonna take a doo-doo at Rupp but still…tighten up!

That thing‘s gotta be the size of a small house.
