Kibbie Dome Renovation

Found this link on eGriz and thought you guys might find it interesting. There's a commercial first and then the 3D virtual tour of what they intend to do:

I'm not a big fan of domes so I think Idaho made a big mistake when they took their football inside, but I have to hand it to them for coming up with clever ways to try to make their dome work (for example, daylighting the two end zones).

That's interesting. It will certainly be a unique venue for football. 20K seats is more than enough for them (I saw the Vandals on TV against Utah State-the place looked empty). The current building kind of has a 70's era feel to it-I wouldn't be surprised if there was thick orange shag carpet in the offices!
