Rice Endzone Facility

Post by Stallion »

took inspiration from Ford Stadium and then ran with it. I kind of like the slope of the endzone as it doesn't look as steep as Ford Stadium.

I like how even in their idealistic renderings, they still need to put the cover on the far end zone. It's realistic. We should be doing the same.

When I first read the topic for this thread I thought it was going to be about their endzone beer garden. Would be nice for us to get some inspiration from them.

Living in the Northeast, I haven't been able to go to a game there yet, but the endzone looks like a huge hit. My parents took my Nephews to the Navy game this year and the 5 year old loved hanging out there.
