I think Jane's idea is brilliant. Take the existing grandstand and build the Gophers stadium onto it.
It is also remarkable that I find myself in agreement with both Jane Prince AND MITCH BERG. The only dissenter I see out there is Dave Shove, rubbing 2 sticks together trying to stay warm. The next time the Gopher stadium idea is raised I will say, "If they are going to build it, it should be on the fairgrounds." But, not to be a naysayer, isn't the whole purpose the U wants a new stadium is so that it's on campus?
