    What Would You Do With the South Endzone?

    I know we do this every so often, but I always enjoy the ideas created on here.

    Post a picture of what you'd want the south endzone to be inspired by.

    Personally, I'm fine with a hotel in the South endzone, but the hotel side that is facing the inside of the stadium needs to be a stadium, bowl the stadium in, & add to the STADIUM. Not just be a building in the end zone.

    Personally, I'd like to see a vertical stand of sky boxes that emulate this opera house while at the lower levels have a some rows of seating that bowl in the stadium like La Bombanera in Argentina

    You go GA admission on the lower open tier that leads right up to the field level with TV's food vendors etc...All standing room only with small bar tables etc...Look at the end zone at Jerry's World. On top of this you do all suites/boxes etc...You open up GA pre-game so fans can stand around eat watch other games...This has to happen!

    Boxes and rent space to The Pony. Throw a couple strippers on poles similar to what Dallas does with their "dancers". **

    Make the South Endzone all premium seating, then chairback the entire lower level. The hotel idea can work but it needs to connect the East and West sides. The first design that was put out for the hotel didn't look good IMO.

    Do what Arkansas did with their end zone to a lesser degree. Have boxes that have a few rows of chair back seating in front of them. Kinda looks like behind home plate of a baseball park.

    Good idea.

    I like what Ark did. Maybe keep everything, but remove that 2nd tier, club level seating & just go vertical skyboxes & continue the skyboxes throughout the bowl instead of stopping them halfway like Ark did

    Would increase the stadium capacity to about 63K I'd guess, which I think would work if we're good.

    I'd like the back of it (facing the Junction) to look like that, but having a building like that facing the inside of the stadium is a complete waste of space.

    I'd definitely like to have a 360 degree concourse.

    The first thing that needs to be done to the stadium is to bring the east side under the stands up to the standard of the rest of the stadium. A distant second phase convert the two mid tiers on the west side to boxes. Make up the capacity by bowling in the south endzone. Keep the capacity about where it is.

    What do you care, you never go. The east side under the stands will be the next thing done. I think it's already in the works.

    I was hoping to get the south end bowled in as the next Project. Having an open endzone is so yesterday/bush league/cusa.

    That's not true at all. I went to 4 home games last year

    We're about to be a $130 mil per year athletic program. My guess is that we can do both.

    Speaking of going, where do most out-of-towners park when they go to DWS? I?d like to start going to at least one game a year but I don?t want to pay $400 a night to stay at a hotel that?s within walking distance of the stadium. There are much cheaper alternatives in the Golden Triangle area, but then I?d have to find some place to park.

    You get a parking pass through the Bulldog Club. Otherwise you park a ways out and either walk in or take one of the shuttles.

    There are public lots in several places, you can buy a pass online.
