New JumboFrog 5000 coming in 2019

[Hoosierfrog]

So, what is all the preoccupation with giant screens? Seriously, shouldn’t the concentration be on the field? Is this just pride thing against other schools or what? Sounds like money that could be better spent elsewhere.

I'm still wondering how the present one has stayed up during violent storms...

Gorilla Glue?

 

[MinerFrog2409]

Do I know you?

You don’t. I just don’t want it to fall on me

 

[Froginbedford]

It’s OK. I don’t know anybody over there.

I'm there....

The goal these days is to make the experience at the game as much like watching at home as possible (minus the 70-degree temps and $9.00 six-packs of beer).....and then complain when people don't show up because they are actually watching the game at home.

Go big or go home.

That's what she said.

 

[Way of the Frog]

Go big or go home.

I'm confused, isn't AGC already home so why go at all then?

 

[Frogenstein]

The board is going to extend from flagpole to flagpole unless they have changed the plans since it was delayed.

 

[Pharm Frog]

Gorilla Glue?

And some flex seal.

 

[HToady]

Are they going to pass out tongue depressors at the gate?

 

[OmniscienceFrog]

If that thing tips over it’ll take 1/4 of the stands with it.

And sitting atop the current base i don't expect it will take long for that to happen.

 

[OmniscienceFrog]

Since we love our tailgating so much, can they make it double sided so that lot 3 and 4 can watch?

That's only for Aggie dogs.

The board is going to extend from flagpole to flagpole unless they have changed the plans since it was delayed.

The inside flagpoles or outside flagpoles? I was under the assumption the outside flagpoles. Someone had even suggested it was going to go from the east stands across the west stands to enclose that whole area. Who knows anymore. I guess we will see when it's built.

 

[Frogenstein]

I understood it to be the inside flagpoles.

Do you still have a 32" TV in your den or living room? You could see it, but a 55" or bigger, is much better.

 

[CountryFrog]

i guess i'll wait and pass judgement

Bold strategy

 

[Peacefrog]

yea that's still too small, it really doesn't look like an improvement at all but it's a rendering so i guess i'll wait and pass judgement

You must not killerfrogs much - passing judgment on things with little to no information is the order of the day around here.

Of all the wet blankets in the world, you're the Charley Brownest.

 

[Boomhauer]

For those missing the joke, here’s the actual rendering.

Current:

For references, CDC previously commented back in January or so that it’s slightly larger than Baylor’s video board at the new McLane Stadium.

IMO, it should still be larger. Baylor’s is closer to the stands because it’s not on top of a second deck. I think they could nearly get rid of the podium and go quite a bit wider and taller

Yep, still too small. Wonder where that one will move to when we decide to go bigger in another 5yrs.

Actually 60”, but I don’t have a live football game going on the rug when I watch it.
