How would you upgrade Ford?

Another thread got me to wondering: What upgrades does Ford need? Not just closing the horseshoe, but anything you can think of. Is the 18 year old structure aging a bit? I think it's got good bones.

Don't close the horseshoe. Add a second floor deck on the east side.

It certainly doesn't need more seats.

Like the cell tower idea.
Also need to have stress cracks addressed for long term structural integrity. Remember the old Frog stadium. Had water coming through concrete into bathrooms and concourse. Lack of care.
More adult beverage selections. I cant drink beer.

LED ribbon stretching across the east side of the stadium on the roof of the luxury suites and press box.
New wide Jumbotron likes those at Auburn and Texas.
Add two portable cell phone towers.

Remove the seats from the north end zone. Turn it into a grassy knoll for adults aged 50+ to roll down.

Separate sections for body roll and wheelchair roll. Stair lift on the side to get back to the top.

I agree with Bus and TidePony. Also, more wins in Ford would my primary objective. Need some "Moody Magic". Ford Fanatics?

1) modest upper deck on east side with suites under them. we'll need that once sonny has us undefeated after next year.
2) north "party deck" where the upper deck end zone is.
3) creative state fair style food that changes every home game and creates some attention.
4) Tequila shots required for all lower blue hairs at the end of each quarter. Lets get those ol battle axe grandmas to get mean.
