New Stadium Perspective

[Zip Watcher]

TCF Bank Stadium reviews from Gopher fans.Got curious about how things went in the Twin Cities Saturday. I watched much of the game .. good game & it played VERY well on TV.So I went over to gopherhole.com to see what their postgame threads looked like .. and it seems like the Zips Nation is a much happier crew these days than the Gopher Hole.Puts it in further focus to me just how WELL everything was handled by Hunter, Tom & staff on Saturday. I haven't seen anything here about people giving up trying to get food or going to the bathrooms.I guess if the main contention from Zips fans is that tall guy in the band who didn't aim his trumpet high enough .. things went pretty well? B) B) Go Zips!!!

Sounds like everyone's pleased, except for all the crap that went wrong! I guess the message is simple: "Just Win" and it's hunky dory.BTW -- is ZN the only BB that doesn't have an Art Vandelay? (If so, let's keep it that way. How 'bout an Art Nuveau, aka Herschel Bernardi?)

Yeah, but Zip Watcher didn't you see my complaint about the overly bright sun on the field and the fact that with my sunglasses on it wasn't quite bright enough? It was really, really upsetting.BOO YEAH GO ZIPS BABY! BEAT THE HOSERS!STZ

I'm not sure what section you were sitting in, but in 202/204 there were vendors up and down the aisles all game long

I was in 215 and I did not see anyone selling anything. Is 204 in the GA seating or is it a reserved section?

I was sitting GA 50-yard line & bought a fruit smootie from a walking vendor.

Doesn't anybody want to be his latex man?

David Giffels, author, former Beacon Journal columnist and now a UA faculty member, reflects on the aura of InfoCision Stadium:"It’s been especially interesting to me just how remarkably remarkable the addition of this new football stadium has been," Giffels writes. "It’s not like it’s the only recent improvement. Far from it. But it seems to be the one that has drawn all the others into their full context."Read his blog here.

Doesn't anybody want to be his latex man? He wants me to sell his latex? I don't think so! Not that there's anything wrong with it!

Why do we not have any vendors in the crowd?

Because the Can't State alumnus are still peddling at Jacobs Field for another couple weeks...
