The west side is going to have the nacho bar and the east side will have the Philly cheese steak stand. http://www.odusports.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=31100&ATCLID=211807663 RE: NEW stadium construction - cmett003 - 08-08-2019 08:26 AM I was wrong, hotdogs will be served in the stands.

Passing up the Big E's Bell.. On an earlier post MrBigBlue seemed to be lamenting the lack of space for portapotties in the aftermath of the construction. Maybe here is where they can make him happy.

What Traditions ? We need..... Although its a stupid decision by the AD to not even pursue the bell from the big E there is nothing stopping us from doing that with a custom bell or a fog horn and name it after a mythical carrier/destroyer "USS Old Dominion". I know it will not have a personal connection to Navy but at least we won't need special connections to make that happen.

RE: NEW stadium construction - ODU True Blue - 08-08-2019 11:29 AM CVN68 USS Nimitz will be decommissioned in the mid 2020s. Maybe we could try in again later!

Always easy to take facts from an anonymous message board and run with it. I mean, posters have all the knowledge, skillsets, and vision without any risk of losing personal income, losing money against ODU's budget, running into compliance issues, or anything. It's awesome.

True. I personally wouldn't have believed it had it not been an ODU alum posting it on our forum with the information from another ODU alum being his superior. There are always risks and I personally don't want to act like I know all the risks that comes with that decision because I don't but to a third/fourth person reading OP's input it's easy to assume it's rather easy to perceive it as stupidity when you have someone in the middle facilitating it. Again not everyone in that communication channel might have all the info but to say "No thanks" instead of we will consider it says something. Doesn't it? RE: NEW stadium construction - AimHigher - 08-08-2019 12:43 PM VT has the lunch pail to symbolized blue collar approach to hard work given to a player. From day one I always thought we should have a symbol like that for hard work and outstanding play from 1 player each week. Maybe a hard hat would be a good symbol because ODU is always building. Maybe the super fan aka the hard hat guy could hold the hard hat that is given out to the best player that week. I guess the ODU dog tag never became a tradition? RE: NEW stadium construction - DaBigBlue - 08-08-2019 01:11 PM Not that it matters now. But I did in fact see the email chain, that ended up with "No Thanks". Even if he said, let's do it, we have no way of knowing if we would of gotten the bell. You aren't going to get the prettiest girl to dsnce if you don't ask. I for one think we are missing the boat big time not teaming up with the Navy more. 25% of students at ODU have a direct connection with the Navy and just 4 miles from the stadium is 100,000 young men and women looking for something to do on the weekends. |
