The folks in charge of rebuilding Kyle Field have announced the re-seating process and some of the costs associated with the new seats today. All in all, it's not too bad for the regular Joe. The big money folks are going to have to shell out, but I guess that was expected. (North suites cost $50K/year plus $150K campaign contribution while the west suites are at 500K) To keep my seats, my annual donation appears to actually be going down, but the added campaign contribution that is good for 10 years probably makes it come out about the same in the end. Upper bench seats are as low as $25/year + a $25 campaign contrib. Currently I have two seats in the upper armchairs of the north end zone that I've had since it was built in 99. I am considering moving to the south end zone so I can add 2 more seats. I now have two step daughters (one of which LOVES A&M) so 4 seats certainly works better for the family. Also... it looks like I can transfer seats to a family member so my brother could take two of them when the girls are out of the picture. I'm pleasantly surprised so far. Of course they haven't mentioned the actual ticket prices which could blow the whole deal...
The bright item on top of the far end is a "large" jumbotron/scoreboard. There are also two on the near ends but not as easy to pick out. One is beside the canopy, and has an aTm on the back. The other is on the opposite side of the field, but in the same location.
Scott, Looks nice and should be a great venue for football fans. Congratulation on Allen's recruitment, he sounds like a good one!
Didn't know where to put these babies! So I figured that since Scott will no doubt be sporting a pair soon I'd post them here!
