I figured some of you might like to see some of the inner workings of the stadium model I used in my Youtube channel virtual tour.

Let me know if you remember anything I can add or anything I got wrong.

Also let know if you would like to see more like this for other parts of the stadium. Once I get the model set up I might even be able to gen a view from a specific section. Would that interest anyone?


FRONT VIEW FROM FIELD WITH SEATS REMOVED


BACK VIEW WITH BRICK WALL OPENED UP

I'd definitely like to see the view from our old seats. That would be cool.

Those old sports venues looked great.

Probably why new venues go with the retro look.

Your video view flies right over them just before it enters the press box.

i love the old art deco they used on the south end..
I wonder if early on they leaned on that element using that font for more than
the main sign. I haven't seen any internal signs that confirm or counter this.

Tulane stadium was around so long it has a little of everything in its design.

Would love to see what you make. I moved down here too late to see Tulane Stadium but would have loved to have experienced a Saints game there back then.

I have a post on here with the my virtual tour but I'm not sure how to link to it without it looking like a blind post to wherever..

I embeded the tour on that thread. Not sure what the policy is embedding same video on multiple threads

its on youtube.. channel is TS1926 WIllow.. I have a new tour in the works Added a few things and cleaned it up a bit.

Let me know if you want to see something in particular.. I have the entire stadium built but some parts are more accurate and detailed than others.

Without checking the score I can guess it was rough day for you. 74 Dolphins still elite.. Do you recall anything about the place I can add that you didn't see?

West Section XG - Row 11 - Seat 9

Should be clear as I rendered in 8K

I added as a link so it would open as a 360 degree viewable image.
since Flickr will automatically open the special viewer. You should be able to
drag to look around.

I wasn't sure where seat 9 was so I guessed it was from the left of the section. Hope you enjoy it. (Added a little easter egg to it)

Flickr seems to be having problems.

OK, it's finally working for me, but that's not our seat position.

Our seats were on the upper deck, just below where your video enters the press box. Cool easter eggs, though.

ETA: I gave you the wrong ticket stub.

No, it was upper deck. We had 4 season tickets up there for all the years of Saints games there.

Sorry I missed your reply on the other thread but I'll have to check on the old box drawings.

I know we have the new box but they aren't record drawings so there are some things in the contract documents that are not what was built. I have all of the TS drawings from the beginning and we've built a partial Revit model of the structure.
