For those wondering how much an endzone expansion would cost or why OU would bowl in the south end zone look no further than Fayetteville where they will be spending $78-95 million to bowl in their Endzone and add 5,000 seats completing their stadium master plan (they did the same thing to their other Endzone in 2001).

I think we see a similar project announced at OU sooner than later. Then it will be completely rebuilding the west side upper deck to add a press box and suites.

Will this require their moving the chicken farm?

Seems like a lot of money, just to get 5000 more delusional dipsh*ts in the stadium:)

I don't think they'll completely rebuild the west side...renovations, maybe, and a new press box for sure, but I don't see them tearing down the existing deck. They'll incorporate suites into the new press box.

I think it was saying bowling in the endzone AND adding 5,000 seats but i could be wrong

Edit: I am wrong it says just adding additional 5,000 new seats although the field level suites will bring in some extra money as well
