I thouhg they were kinda small when i went to the GB game. Now that they are putting new buildings in the north parking lot the view won't be as good so why not make the screen int he hawks nest much wider.

The Dallas jumbotron is a joke in my eyes. It's a distraction at best and a monument to Jerry's ego at worst.
As long as the screens aren't in place to sell some sort of experience I'm fine with anything.

I honestly think some stadiums are WAY to much bling and not enough sting, take Cowboys stadium for instance, the Cowboys suck at home, well what little they have played at home (more scheduling woes, 6 of 9 away so far?), they're 1-2 RS at home.. in any event I like exactly how the Clink sits right now as is, its perfect, Kilimanjaro, small jumbotrons, and more importantly the Architecture funnels the crowd noise right down to the turf, those overhead overhangs help to get the job done this is just a guess but I have a feeling by seasons end the Clink will be the most feared stadium in the west? its PERFECT imho, wouldn't change a thing, cept maybe clear a spot to hang a Bear rug or two?

Me and my partner had a lot of success with them this year. http://hobbyuav.com/kickstarter-was-a-success/ It really wouldn't surprise me to see the Hawks revamp some of the Technology, including the screen. Just think in a few years, we could be asking whether the holo units shouldn't be life sized. After all, Mr Allen's money comes from that background.

Probably not to far from you.

I doubt that we get new screens until there is a remodeling of the stadium. Say good-bye to your city view for when that happens the changes will affect the ends of the stadium. It wouldn't surprise me if Paul does not have an architect working on that project right now.
