I saw on the contractor sites that they were taking bids on architecture/engineering/design firms.

It would be cheaper to rent out BG High School's stadium.......

Who the ---- cares about that DUMP, you could rebuild it and it still would be a DUMP. Let them play on I-75.

Something that would go along with the Stroh's Center like Whitmer's Stadium would be perfect.

Where did BG play before the Doyt? Another stadium in the same spot? Another place on campus?

The old stadium was in the heart of campus. Saw my first college game there. Mel Grey was UT's big star but we lost. Saw the first UT-BG game at Doyt. UT won.

Very interesting. Where on campus? That grassy area south of Eppler and Anderson? Around where the student union is? Somewhere else? The campus is pretty cluttered, but those are the two areas that look like a stadium could have been.

I was eight or nine but I recall it being NE prof that long dorm that fronts Wooster. I have some video from that game that former Ay Ziiggy Zoomba owner put on DVD for me but
I'm not sure where it is.

I'm pretty sure they played just outside Anderson Arena in the grass area to the south.

Northwood High School has a better football stadium than the Dork Fairy. Northwood's stadium is much better than a lot of college stadiums.

You're not talking about the Northwood Rangers are you?

The area that now is occupied by the Education Bldg., College of Business, Memorial Hall (and Anderson Arena), Jerome Library, and East Hall. The bell tower stands on the old 50 yard line.
