I'm very intrigued as to how they're going to pull this off without looking like Toys R Us.

there needs to be a serious effort to contact the athletic dept. and get them to do something about the freaking pipe. Paint the damn thing for frick's sake

I think the huge "Tiger Stadium" sign is going to look awesome, but that is just me.

Not nearly as bad as it seemed on the Monday pics

i'd imagine the lettering will be white, not yellow. If it's yellow, i'm going to puke

Has no one seriously never emailed or talked to one of the higher ups about doing something with that fricking PVC pipe?

Why? I love the yellow gold of our uniforms. I hope the letters have the same glossy finish as our helmets, which appear luminous under the lights during night games.

The letters lit up in purple at night would look way better than yellow.

I'm with him. I love our uniforms too. But bright yellow on signage is pretty cheesy.

it's not the color itself that i have a problem with. I just don't want that enormous signage to be colored at all.

The Moran sign doesn't looks as bad as I thought it would. Can't wait to see the entrance on 9/1

Is the "Chicken Memorial PVC pipe" sign backit too?

I think they missed an awesome opportunity to put "Welcome to Death Valley" below Tiger Stadium in the archway.

The depth perception in this pic had everyone freaking out. Now that I look at it they're a good 50ft or so away.
