I've Got Some of the Pictures Up

When the camera ran out of batteries, it was cell phone time, and here the phone pics are.

Lucas Oil Stadium is the happiest place on Earth.  It makes Disney Land look like Baghdad.  Lucas Oil Stadium is huge.  When I was on the elevator going up to the press box, we were above almost every other building in the city besides the Bank One/Chase Tower.

The concessions were ridiculously priced but also ridiculously good.

The staff there was so nice.  The elevator people and the chefs were way better than the Conseco Fieldhouse jerks.

The big screens have great quality from no matter where you are sitting.

The turf is nice.  The tire pieces are really, really small and it looks pretty realistic from a distance.

There are so many TVs.  There are almost too many.  There are even TVs in elevators.  No matter where you are, you should see the game.

The bathrooms are nice.  The press box bathroom was spotless, but I don't know how much it has been used.

So that's it for now.  I'll have a more formal review soon.

Oh Yeah

I also forgot to mention that the building with the roof closed is louder than the RCA Dome. For the Avon-Hamilton Southeastern game, there were no more than 10,000 people, but the place was still rocking. It was loud in the glassed-in press box. With 63,000, it will be amazing. And I don’t think with the roof open there will be too big of a difference. The window would be the big problem, but it is built to keep sound in like most pro football stadiums nowadays.

OK

Something werid is going on. I’m trying to save them to my computer and then upload them, but apparently there is a security issue. I’m going to get on this.

I’m not sure what you are trying to have us do with the other link ,all I get from the new link is it tells me to sign into my Google account?

Yeah

That was the original link to the pics. I didn’t know if it would work or not. That was why it wasn’t working I assume. The URLs were from my Gmail, so the security thing blocked them.

They're Up

It took me a while and it was pretty tedious, but it worked and you can see them. They aren’t as big as the originals, but at least they are there.

Re Pics

Nice job, they might not be as big as you say the original are but they are clear and shows some of the stadium’s beauty.
