Talk about pi$$ing your money away……

Probiotic Stadium opened last weekend in Birmingham. Couldn’t even come close to a sellout. Give it a few more games before it looks like Legion Field 2.0. $200 million down the drain…..and to think they almost built a dome instead for UAB…....

I remember when USM spent $32 million on just one endzone upgrade. Now you have schools like USA building a new stadium for like $70 million. Hell, my tax dollars just paid $70 million for a new high school stadium here in north Texas. Did we get taken to the cleaners 12 years ago on that $32 million addition? We should have added a little more to the budget to remove the upper decks since 30K is no longer required for FBS qualification. The Rock would look much better if we removed them…..

Wonder what the occupancy rate is on the MMRoberts suites? I never really understood the allure. I mean they are in the endzone, suckers!
