Wow, they need to throw a coat or two of paint on those overpasses. They look like they were built in the stone ages.

I've heard rumblings that the Missouri Valley Conference might yank their b-ball tourney from St. Louis and play it there.

The new stadium in Chicago looks like a spaceship landed on Soldier Field.

This one looks like a spaceship landed in a backwater convenience store's toilet bowl after the 350lb attendant just got done disposing of three burritos.

There is parking everywhere surrounding the SC. The distance walked will most likely be about the same you walk from the parking lot in Arrowhead to your seat. I've never understood the whole parking scare. Do people just assume there is no parking downtown?

70

I think the place looks cool as hell, but does anyone know why some of the outer glass is clear and some isn't? Is that a design thing? The randomness of it seems a little odd.

It's 70. The Star building is on 70. The pic is taken from 35 it looks like... but the highway in the pic is 70.

I've been down there lately and it has picked up. Went to Grinders for a concert and couldn't even find space to park...and the streets were full of people. Went by a bar near the Center on the way home (willy's?) and it was packed. I'm freaking ecstatic because I've always wanted our city to be more than it was there for a while.

I stand corrected then, last time I was there I had the family with tme and they were much more concerned about where to go to eat than looking at the Sprint Center!
