Oregon State vice president for university relations and marketing Steve Clark offered insight into the westside stadium implosion...
quote:

“Once renovations are complete, the west side of Reser Stadium will contain premium and general seating options that the school says ‘will provide the closest proximity to the playing field of any college football stadium in the country,'” writes Pete Martini of the Statesman Journal.

“The decision to implode the westside stadium is all about safety,” Clark said, via KOMO News.

“Instead of using a traditional demolition process to take apart such a large structure and tall roof canopy in pieces, implosion of the stadium by a licensed contractor will contribute to OSU community, worker and public safety during demolition. As implosion occurs, a series of explosive-like popping sounds will take place over approximately two seconds. Following these popping sounds, the stadium structure will safely fall vertically to the parking lot level around the stadium.”

That was the Awbrens program after year 2 with Harsins. Malzahn even looks good to them now.
