Bristol motor speedway is set to build a new screen display that they have named ‘Colossus’. While it will hang in the center of the arena- this 700 ton TV is far from your average screen display.

Standing at nearly thirty feet tall and sixty-three feet wide ‘Colossus’ will be the world’s largest outdoor center-hung screen display and four and a half times the size of the current screen display at Bristol motor speedway.


It seems to crazy to even consider hanging something like this.

Or should I just say fAck yeah 'Merica

What a shitty venue to watch a football game. If you are front row, you are very far from the game, much less back row people.

This whole game seems like it would be awesome in theory but just awful in reality.

Hopefully they only sell 40k tickets and we can put an end to this nonsense

Considering VT sold their 30 or 40k allotment and UT sold their 60k allotment already, you will not be happy

True 'Merica would be to have the football game played simultaneously with a nascar race. That would be epic
