Been watching the Endzone cam on resort.com. Saw they put blacktop down. Are they putting turf on top or leaving as is?

From what I've heard, the blacktop is going to be covered with turf

There are several rolls of turf under the West Grandstand. My assumption is it will be placed over the blacktop.

I have been told turf will be extended also. Credible source.

Yes, the new blacktop will be covered with turf. From what I’ve been told by Yosef Club employees, the area will become a suite/club type area with tables & chairs. Similar to box seats at a baseball game. A spot to gather, or event space....think a beer garden type area.

GO APPS!!

I think they should extend the turf.

Thanks...I went blank when you said extended but figured it out. Been a long week. Have a great weekend.

I was up today, the area will have turf and NEZ patrons will have access. Thee team will enter/exit that way.

For the big ticket draws such as when Carolina comes to town.....I hope they plan to put back in the temporary aluminum stands and fill in the whole area to back of endzone leaving ample room for player play follow through at very back of endzone for safety unlike some football stadiums that crowd the back of endzone too much.

I hope they reward season ticket holders and allow us to purchase additional tickets before general admission.

I suggest APP fans go ahead and buy season tickets now so all they have to do for Unc season is RENEW. Let’s avoid the Holmes opening where Unc fans bought out for the one game.

Turf is going down now!

GO APPS!!

That's a lot of green just itching to be painted up. Suggestions?

I'm guessing they'll probably leave that as is since it won't be very visible with people walking all over it. It would be a cool area for a mountainous mural type thing. Add a little unique flair to the field.

Question for any masonry workers since the original thread question is answered: Is it possible to retrofit anything to those flat bland grey sides towers down the road when/if more money comes in? I love the endzone and the amount of work/money that went into it, but that was a poor design choice.

Are the new NEZ locker rooms done yet, or will they be by season start? Just wondering if we can look forward to the new team entrance this year?

Ha!

I’m not worried about that unless they decide to bring their basketball team to KBS.

The team hasn’t moved everything in as of last Friday. Several guys were lifting in weight room and walked into the locker room, to answer your question - Yes.

Love the gold steps with the black seats.
