Doesn't seem like that many years ago. OSU has come a long way. View AttachmentThat Benny logo is so small compared to today's standards of field logos. Bring back Benny Beaver and bring back Bernice!!! Lady Beavs needs to be represented too! I remember sitting on the SE corner in the pouring rain during the 2OT "CW" game in Parker Stadium. Times certainly have changed since then.

Anybody know how many rows of ribbon boards there will be? Looks like at least two where the white long brackets are and maybe a third on the top level? Just wondering I like all the ribbon boards and video boards in other stadiums I've been to, and would like Reser to have as many as possible

Has anyone heard or thought of putting video boards on either side of the West Side Press Box?

Does anyone else think that Hoffman may be running a little behind schedule in the completion of Reser? This is 2nd weekend in a row a skeleton crew has been working. Just a thought.
Also, is August 1st the projected completion date?

I've heard they are about a week behind, but nothing to worry about. They were working this morning.
The back of the stadium is almost completely done, landscaping is in and it looks spectacular.

Last time I checked the 2023 schedule, the first home game is Saturday, September 9 at 6:00 pm. Not sure why it would need to be 100% complete before then.

Also, is August 1st the projected completion date? The estimated completion time was 2 months prior to our first game which would technically be about now. They are definitely behind schedule but the question is how far behind. 2 months is still a long time to complete the project. Much of the external appearance looks promising; Seats, landscaping, name up, etc. However, it is the interior aspects that are more important. Plumbing, electrical, and especially the media booth wiring. These parts aren’t as obvious but usually require the most time. It would be best that they can finish in the next 6 weeks to give them at least a couple of weeks to test drive and work out any bugs.

Is it me or does it look like they’re painting the stair cases up to the 3rd deck orange?

I love looking at the webcam, and then this picture from the 1990s.

Slipped into the stadium this afternoon (through a gap in the construction zone…..such a rebel…😁). Pretty amazing. Still a lot to do, but SO MUCH nicer! FYI; the smell of fresh hemlock bark mulch PERMEATES the exterior. Looks nice, though.

That's the old Valley Football Center before or during the 1996 remodel, right? If you click on it the picture, it looks like it is the post-1990 video board in the South End Zone, as well. Just curious.

Does the endzone lettering, one side "Oregon State" the other "Beavers" help? Simple white on green astro turf. Pre orange that went salmon. I think 1996 is pretty close.
