After seeing the club seats for the first time and touring the facilities, and throwing in all the upgrades to come, I think it's safe to say we will have one of, if not THE premier stadium in the country. GO VOLS!!

Be kind to those of us whose legs don't work well anymore, but can still yell, cheer, and taunt until our vocal chords are just as swollen and bloodied as yours!

I'll be driving by the stadium today, I'll see if there's been any more progress from the last set of pictures.

For comparison's sake, if you've seen pictures of Texas's jumbotron, ours will be bigger.

"Naw," you'll say, "but everything's bigger in Texas!"
Not jumbotrons.[/QUOTE]

That's hilarious!:lolabove:

Hiya Vol fans, I'm leading a crew of SkyMonkeys building you're new video board. I just wanted to say it has been a pleasure living here in Knoxville hanging out with the super nice people that live here when I'm not busting my ass 187' up in the air pimping out your stadium. Those days I see mentioned that not much appears to be happening is almost always due to the wind conditions. I can't operate the 300' 190 ton crane when the wind gusts above 15 m.p.h.. My crew will do you right, we should have your video board lit up by the end of next week and then start on the finishing touches.

I could be wrong, but I believe I noticed part of the screen being assembled today! By reading skymonkey's post, it more than likely was part of it! Can't wait to see this bad boy!

Saw that too when driving by. Looks like they had a couple big panels already up.

35 of 168 video modules are up as of today, you won't see much happen with the back of the sign until we get the video stuff done so all the wiring can get done. Each video module is approx 5' 3" square and weighs around 800 pounds.
