I hope the planning includes a big-ass rain cover like the South Side, you know, for the rain that never happens.

Should just update the entire covered area and do it like the Seahawks stadium. If keeps fans semi dry, and traps the noise in the stadium.

i'm curious about the design plans and if they may try to create a movable roof.

wildfires and air quality almost disrupted a game not too long ago.

That would likely be a rebuild less a renovation. I am thinking we'll get a larger version of what Reser Stadium

TBH my suggestion is purely for the sound-bouncing effect the other cover provides, I'll never be able to afford seats under it.

If I remember right in the late 70's or early 80's there was talk about putting a dome with a moveable roof on Autzen. How far we have come to circle back to that

Domes suck. If they go to a dome I guarantee attendance will drop.
