Somebody has yet to see any pics of FAU Stadium. Trust me, playing there is an award.
brand new. $70 million bucks. seats 30K -- which may sound snug at first, but that's about what a successful c-usa bowl game draws. yeah, I don't understand the problem.
unless they can't sell beer since it's an on campus venue, in which case the whole idea can go to hell.

We sell beer, wine, and liquor at the stadium, so no worries there.

Even though I don't like the stadium very much, I'm cool with said idea. Boca Raton is beautiful as is FAU's campus.
