im not an very tall man located somewhere between 5'11-6'0 feet but if I had interest in seeing/reading those bottom row plaques should I be lying down on the ground???

Not trying to be negative cause everything looks so good but I really like reading stuff like that..

i bet they're 3 or so feet off the ground using the tire of the crane as the closest point of reference. i'm sure it's higher than it looks. remember when people though the plaque arch in the center of the champions plaza appeared to be gigantic based on the picture?

True. just looks a bit uncomfortable to read since u have to hunch down. Older people don't be hunching down I bet Scotty Moran is pissed already looking for a refund...

I hate to see the program completely sell out to the dollar. I appreciate everybody who supports the Tigers, but in 10 years or so, when the new wears off this stuff, people will wonder what we were thinking.

signed Bill Hill Griffin Stadium, Sanford Stadium, Davis Wade Stadium, Donald W. Reynolds Stadium, and Williams-Brice Stadium. 5 STADIUMS in the SEC are named after people who donated a lot of money. In 10 years, I'll tell you what people will think....nothing. No one will care. Get used to it. If you donate a lot of money, you get your name on stuff. It's been happening everywhere in the world forever and will continue to happen. Funny how you don;t see people bitch about names on regular buildings, but heaven forbid it's connected to the football stadium.

Agreed. It would be even better if you take it tomorrow night during Isaac with a good lens.

What do they do for all of the season ticket holders to make them feel special?

They let them sit in their seats and watch the games. Seems fair to me.

Do they have all the plaques up yet? Seems like there aren't a lot of them--don't see Jamarcus, etc.
