I'm going to keep pushing this non stop. I think if these pay for themselves then WE CANNOT KEEP waiting on these as the price goes up each and every year. Build it now! Same went with Cobb Field here in Billings. They delayed 1-2 years and prices went up so they had to cut things out (granted that is a public vote on funds).
I would like to know from someone if the Boxes would indeed 100% totally pay for themselves each year? If they do, then this is a NO BRAINER. GET IT DONE this offseason for next year!

If you're assumptions are correct, then I agree. Even if they aren't completely correct, I still think this is a must. The stadium needs obvious upgrades. Bowl in one end. Put in skyboxes. Upgrade sound system.

I believe there is less than a 1% chance that the renovation project (the whole enchalada) won't be approved. If approved, Cardiac, construction starts spring '07.
Montana State IS what "they" think Montana is.

Does this include boxes, bowl, and practice facility. Where does all the money come from? This is big news!

Is there a an event/press conference/whatever.
I will need to be in Bozeman that day, and if there is an event, I would love to attend.
Thanks.

It'll be a big day for Bobcat Athletics, that doesn't mean us kids are getting everything we want. Don't get your hopes up waiting for the golden goose.

Someone mentioned a Booster meeting where he thought they would make an announcement on the modifications.

I can't wait to here what the expansions are going to be if that is the case as I think everybody would love to see an upgrade at the stadium rather than an indoor practice facility, but if they do go the other way, I understand that this will help the program as well. Very exciting stuff as a Bobcat fan.

Maybe the plan that will be released will be to build an exclusive baskeball arena and convert the Fieldhouse into a indoor practice facility and offices!! Ok, I know that isn't the plan, but would be cool!

Maybe we're going to buy the Valley Ice Garden, and turn it into practice facilities.
I'm just trying to tie two different threads together, and make a knot.
