goodbye old friend

 

[berryfrog95]

wow....I can't believe she's down.....

 

[NNM]

Keep 'em coming. I saw the implosion on live web tv feed, but the TCU Physical Plant webcams are down, so haven't been able to see it after the dust cleared.

 

[Opintel]

The TCU is still intact! Amazing... :biggrin:

 

[FeistyFrog]

Everybody grab a shovel!

Now it looks like SMU's stadium... :dry:

...fifteen minutes before kickoff.

 

[TCU2002]

There's a view that hasn't been there in 50 years....

 

[kodiak]

The TCU is still intact! Amazing... :biggrin:

I thought the same thing. Enduring.

Uploading some photos to photobucket right now. Was in Lot 4 where all the VIPs were and the plungers for the demolition. CGP was there. He said Kelsey had to stay home with the dogs because they go crazy when Frog Horn goes off much less an implosion.

After looking at that photo for a few seconds it's hard to believe we just played a game there a few weeks ago!

 

[QuilterFrawg]

MSNBC has been showing the implosion as a segue clip at the beginning or end of a segment. I think they said "grandstand" the last time. ??

Watched it live out in the cold. It was cool too see how the thing imploded and how it all went down. The an all sudden, something hit me as I saw this big open space, a bit of sadness. I thought of all those good and bad times that I have witnessed in that stadium since attending games there since the 70's as a kid. It was kind of the finality of it. However, I am excited about the new stadium and the future.

Does anyone know what did that banner say that was tied at the top of the press box and elevator shaft?

 

[TxFrog1999]

My daughter watched it with me live on TV this morning and once the dust started to clear she jumped up and down yelling "the TCU is still there!"

Great omen... if you believe in those things.

In any event, that stadium was one tough building.
