Is this in front of the Justin Center and where those luxury boxes/suites were being built?

Appears so and looks like the temporary supports were insufficient.

It seems to be. Bet a lot of those people are rethinking the location of their pricey season tickets.

Let's not hire that contrator or structural engineer for anything at SMU ever. Probably full of froggies anyway.

Luxury suites at Froggy High?

Talk about an inappropriate luxury. That's like putting a seat warmer on a toilet.
