I think Beaver Stadium will be over 109K capacity (record attendance will be maybe 114k this year, but shrink by 500 or so next year when all the construction is done.
If you like football and stadiums, Depressed Ginger is a great channel to find on youtube. He knows his stuff.
Are they going to rename it ‘Sandusky Field”?
Maybe they can have the Coke Bowl in their new stadium, fraternity members admitted free.
Do better than that.
Interesting name for a stadium.
“It’s a noble creature.”
Sandusky wsa not guilty.
Do they think a “Big Beaver” will attract their fans?
yeh- and joe biden was sharp as a tack....
JohnZiegler did excellent work. Teh evidence doesn’t hold up.
And he hates Sandusky. Didn’t want to find what he found.
what about the assistant coach (a former player) who saw Sandusky in the act of assaulting a young male in the locker room?

Apparently, that detail was misremembered or embellished. Nothign untoward wsa happening.
Only the showers in the locker rooms - "The Sandusky Showers".
It was named after a Governor of PA - James Beaver.
The U.S. is about 4% of the world's population, but the whole rest of the world has only a few stadiums seating 100K (one in India, one in North Korea, and one in Australia). By contrast, the U.S. alone has eight of them seating over 100K.
In the U.S. multiple games with 100K fans happen simultaneously (college football Saturdays when Bama and/or Michigan and/or Texas A&M, etc have home games they're all full). And those of us who are fans of those teams count it as the norm for college football. But in the entire rest of the world 100K fans gather in one place in only a few places.
My wife and I used to live in Enola, PA, and the home game day traffic jam going out to Happy Valley, on Hwy 15, was endless.
LOL- misremembered?
Not only did McQuery, the former QB and coach, go right to Paterno and report what he saw, he also won a lawsuit of almost $13 million for PSU’s mishandling of the situation...
Because one guy “writes a book” and finds out stuff he didn’t want doesn’t mean Sandusky is innocent- that’s absurd...
