Great Show, LSU!!!
OK, those of you who were here in Omaha, tell me your honest opinion. Is Rosenblatt such a miserable place that Omaha should tear it down? The new stadium they are building will be shiny and new, in the midst of giant concrete slab shared with the convention center. You'll apparently have a view of the Omaha skyline (God I hope they don't get it backwards so you see the lead-cleanup area and the nasty Missouri River!) They could have renovated Rosenblatt for $35+ million LESS than the cost of the new facility. The mayor pushed this through without a public vote, being held hostage by the NCAA. It goes without saying, he did not run for re-election!
I love the vendor stands and tents all scattered throughout the Rosenblatt area. I love the green trees all around and the zoo desert dome over the right field wall. I love the colors of the stadium. I just can't imagine having the interest in a cookie-cutter stadium in North Downtown. You can't recreate the charm of Rosenblatt. But maybe I'm just old and sentimental.
If you are trying to get to that area of town when there's something at the Qwest, God be with you. I simply can not imagine the nightmare of concurrent concerts and CWS. You think 13th Street is bad by Rosenblatt, wait for this!
