Does anyone else miss....

[VBoschHawk]

The charm of the pre-renovation Kinnick Stadium? There were some really old school things about Kinnick that I miss sometimes. Don't get me wrong, I love the renovations, but I miss the old Kinnick sometimes.

 

[watertower]

I like it the way it is now.

 

[LivermoreHawk]

I miss the old fashioned clock that they had on there. I would always look up there to see what time it was. Now I have to take the time and effort to reach in my pocket and pull out my cell phone.

 

[Roy]

I miss the troughs.

 

[VBoschHawk]

I don't miss the restrooms, but I do miss watching a visiting fan enter the men's restroom for the first time, especially if they had to drop a duece.

 

[VBoschHawk]

I also like where the student section and band used to sit.

 

[CalvaryHawk]

I miss the troughs.

Yeah, some of my fondest memories of college are rubbing elbows and crossing streams with perfect strangers who can barely stand up.

 

[HawkeyeNTexas]

I think they need to replace/redo the other endzone seating now.

 

[moelhawk]

Yes, I miss not having doors on the bathroom stalls. In college when I had a bad case of the beer sh$%s from a late Friday night at Brothers.... everyone could watch me releaving myself at halftime.

This is more of a compliant, but has anyone noticed that the HUGE tigerhawk on the new scoreboard is not centered properly? It tilts downward. Seriously, how to you mess that up?!

 

[Lexhawk]

I miss the Tigerhawk on the watertower. Oh, that's right, they never got around to putting the Tigerhawk on the watertower. Must be wishful thinking.
Seriously, I miss the grass areas in the North endzone.

 

[reamkore]

I miss the troughs.

co sign!

 

[reamkore]

i dont miss getting to my seat

 

[Butkus051]

I sure as heck don't miss the massive traffic jams of people entering the game at the SW corner. That was dangerous for kids!

 

[tbhawkeye]

I love what they've done but something has to be done with the bathrooms and concession stands. Up at Wisky a couple of weeks ago, you could go to the head and grab a Coke and not miss a play during a TV timeout. Good luck with that at Kinnick!

 

[ShadasRevenge]

I miss the troughs.

Still got 'em in the North End Zone. Can't beat it, because you can always find room to get in there and take care of business.

 

[inheaventhereisnobeer]

no way

 

[Herkyalert]

The only thing I miss is the where the student section used to be.

Grass also now.

 

[archiehawk]

The older I get the more I like the new Kinnick. The lack of restrooms in the old one would kill me now..lol

 

[JonDMiller]

Yes, I miss not having doors on the bathroom stalls. In college when I had a bad case of the beer sh$%s from a late Friday night at Brothers.... everyone could watch me releaving myself at halftime.

Whew...I think I would have to tap out at that point in time, go out to the parking lot and hit a porta potty, and walk down the hill to the Vine or the Wig and finish things out from there.

I was walking around Kinnick on Tuesday, taking a few photos...just admiring how much the new south end zone looks like the old east and west sides from a bricks perspective...the place is just beautiful.
