Looks like its on the Board of Regents Agenda to approve the project for construction at their meeting next week.

Goddamit they're also going to approve turning Grant into a pedestrian only street
Might as well, when was the last time it was open?
I live right by here and I've been dealing with the shut down, for about three to four year. Easy for you to say, when your F'n sorry ass lives in Helena.


Am I missing some context or past history here, because this reply seems way out of line?
Have you not seen phat cat post before? Thats how he rolls.
But you're right, there is no reason for him to be snotty like that.
Not one of you live in Bozeman. MSU shutting down streets because "Grown-Ups" can't look both ways to cross the street, is BS. MSU thinks they own the town. They don't.

Best advice here. Phat Cat you need to step away if this gets you going that much. Off topic and not even close to worthy of attacking everyone else around here about.

You're right. But, MSU is building a new hotel on campus. Shutting down one of the main access streets to their ever growing traffic pain in the ass. THEY DON'T OWN THIS TOWN. I love the soon to be Indoor practice facility. When do they try to shut down Kagy and 11th, year round?

Not sure that is the road I would take to get any where in Bozeman. Maybe they can keep it open and extend 7th thru middle of campus also. Or shoot, just quit growing and stop new buildings going up.

I'm just ecstatic that the giant wind vane/anemometer thingy isn't going to be touched. And it looks like the nursing school building is going to be near the Brick. Parking spaces are already hard to find and now it looks like it will be even worse. Time to get a bike.

If you look closely, you can see the future stadium seating outline, including the tunnel from the field to the BAC.

My only disappointment is it doesn't include handrails for the eastside grandstands.
No kidding! I haven't fallen this year, but that's because it hasn't snowed yet. :evil:

If we can get Phat Cat to sell his house in Bozeman and move to Big Timber, maybe he will donate some of the cash to a stadium hand rail project.

Ok I take it back, that looks way better than what I was imagining. Still slightly a pain to drive around campus, and Grant was convenient to cut across without going all the way to College/Harrison or Kagy

So if there's going to be seating there in the future, will the new video board eventually be moved to above the BAC? And if that's the case, why not just install it there to begin with instead of putting it where the current board sits?

What you see on that drawing is the current sidewalk from the BAC to the field.

Yeah, I’m talking about the thin black line, just follow it from the top of the Sonny Holland endzone seating area and you can imagine where the future seating will be. The scoreboard will not be on the top of the BAC.

I live right by here and I've been dealing with the shut down, for about three to four year. Easy for you to say, when your F'n sorry ass lives in Helena.

But you're right, there is no reason for him to be snotty like that.
Not one of you live in Bozeman. MSU shutting down streets because "Grown-Ups" can't look both ways to cross the street, is BS. MSU thinks they own the town. They don't.
I’ve been doing this with my 3yr old a lot lately…

A couple of blocks that go through an ever expanding campus being closed is not the end of the world.

Pretty standard on most college campuses with 15k+ students & growing.

Just wait until Bozeman spends $10m+ to expand Kagy solely for the convenience of Cat football fans & MSU staff/students.
