[saint0917]

From what I've been told the new scoreboard is going up and being wired as I speak. xthumbsupx

[WestCoastAggie]

Is it one of those gigantic video boards?

I don't know how "gigantic" it will be, but Yes it will have a video board.

Ours will be unvieled tomorrow prior to kick off. It is supposed to a multi screen High Def arrangement. I was on campus yesterday and it is all wrapped up like some secret weapon .
Should be pretty cool though.

That's awesome, we replace our crappy old board with the dead video screen with a generic BS board. Then again, when your offense can barely score points, what the hell do you need a scoreboard for.

We unveiled ours this year too. The state funded a fresh paint job on a 39 year old scoreboard.

Thanks. I never miss a chance to take a jab out my entitled bretheren at Stony Brook.

FAMU will be unveiling a brand new scoreboard this weekend at homecoming. It is a video board.

[jmufan999]

geez, you had me worked up for a jumbo-tron. that looks more like our mini-tron (that's what we call ours).

anyway, the nicest FCS video board i've ever seen is FAR AND AWAY the one at Liberty.... they've got money, money, and more money.... the sound system too, JESUS it's awesome. Liberty's jumbo-tron rivals the one at WVU, that's how nice it is.

Is the old one available? Georgetown needs a replacement scoreboard.

Sweet!!! New Video Board!!

Now we can see replays and make the refs look bad! I am wicked excited for this. I have been looking forward to it for a couple years.

Now that we have lights and a video board we need to renovate the whole stadium! I better start donating more money.

Now those are words you don't hear too often from recent college grads! xthumbsupx

It's a classic. How much Bondo in that body? Makes my Old Skool heart go pitter-patter.

Supposedly we will be breaking it up and auctioning off the pieces. Though I suppose there's nothing stopping G'town from outbidding the fans and putting it all back together.

Are they still using the old round concrete concession stands? I think last time I was there they were set up differently somehow, but I can't remember. Love those silly old concession stands.

You've probably mentioned this before and I just missed it, but I have to ask. With the obvious affiliation you have why do you use the Murray State helmet as your avatar?

Check out the size of the screen compared to the truck underneath.

I know they use one as an OPA OPA! beer stand, and another as a "kids food" stand. The rest of the concession stands are by the field.

This is an older picture of Montana's. the scoreboard is between the Coke sign and the First Interstate sign. The video board is the entire top screen. this year the school added concert quality speakers which border the video board, it can be extremely loud...
