I always liked the way we had "MISSISSIPPI STATE UNIVERSITY" spelled out on the stadium... seems like they could of placed the new ribbon boards one level lower, in front of the Press Box. However, I know it had to line up with the East side... Oh well

We also need to renovate our pressbox, I don't know,a fresh coat of paint maybe. At least paintthe white section(maroon of course)that interrupts the maroon overhang below the quarter deck. I am just glad to see some improvements and hopefully an enclosed endzone soon.

Moving the press box to the east side and removing the junk on the west. I may be wrong, though.

I have a pic, but no way to upload right now. The question is when exactly are they going to use it.

the hope is to eventually move the press box to the top of the west side and basically demolish the current pressbox and turn it into premium seating.

Don't have a dog in this fight since I'm a Bamafan but thepics I saw didn't have a pressbox on top ofthe upper deck.

Doubt that they would move the pressbox to the east side permanantly. Most larger football stadiums, at least outdoor ones, have the pressbox on the south or west sides due to the sun.

Its going to take a spotter watching the game for the announcer up there just to call out numbers. Thats a long way up. I don't see that happening. I know TN has something like this, but not sure if their stadium is as high or as far away from the field.
