What does Geez have to do with possible Autzen expansion project? Is he on the planning team? Financing?

Seems like stadiums might fit in there somewhere.

I’ve seen rumors on TOS that the blue prints have already been presented and approved

I didn't realize they already had a game with over 60,000 attendance. That must have been a fun drive up I-5 afterwards. I wonder what other infrastructure changes would have to be made to accommodate 70k or more attendance.

Financially, won't make a big impact, but I really hope it improves the game day experience by providing some more 'cheap seats' for the crazies.

probably need to build a parking structure as part of the added seating.

i get the sense they will make an upper shelf over the north side which might help trap noise in too but might reduce the video board sightlines for some.

When my children were small we were in the car one afternoon and my oldest son said he was hungry. So I said a prayer asking for help then all of a sudden I remembered there was a McDonald’s about a mile up the road! Thank you Geez lol

Geez has nothing to do with the renovation of Autzen Stadium! As a very religious and faithful man it’s an insult to imply he does! The expansion of Autzen Stadium is only due to the greed of business men and women, of course a number of fans will enjoy it……. Why isn’t Geez helping the beavers at Reser Stadium?

X2, I hope they do provide some “cheap seats” for those who want to enjoy a Autzen Game-day experience without having to spend $500 plus to do it.

One of my favorite deist once famously said: "the longer I live, the more convincing proofs I see of this truth—that God governs in the affairs of men. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without his notice, is it probable that an empire can rise without his aid?"

As far as autzen is concerned, seems like we will be getting a lot less sellout games which is a bummer. Rather have filled up 59k than 1/4 empty 80k.

Seems like a fun topic for another thread. Feel free to start one.

No thanks, this will be my last post on Geez, not necessarily this thread on this topic about expansion. God also gave us free will, we have free will to make our own decisions. God knows our decisions before we make them but it doesn’t mean he or she or? Has a hand in making them, it is our own free will. He does not make us murder or take meth or decide to expand Autzen stadium. I will not be part of a discussion on another thread… simply because this is a Ducks message board and the internet has too many internet cowboys, lol.

I hope they do expand and remember the grass root fan. But I am afraid since money took us to the big 12? And the cost of tickets are out of reach for so many there will not be any cheap seats. I also believe streaming will make watching college ball undesirable…… my rant, I am done for now, lol..

.

It is about pay for view, not the same as having Pac12 network in a cable package, the same as MMA pay for view.
