    A lot of that can be attributed to the hurricanes. People whose homes and communities have been torn apart tend to feel that it should take precedent over renovations to a football stadium.

    And most of the work was being done on the inside, where you can't really see the progress beng made unless you tour the building.

    The lower sideline sections were built in 1924, the first structure built on the new campus. The upper sidelines were added in 1931, the North end zone in 1936, and the South end zone in 1953. The original West upper deck was built in 1978, the East upper deck in the late 1990's and the new West upper deck this year.

    Isn't the renovation adding a few seats? Like, less than a hundred? I forgot how many.

    I think we are going from 92,600 to 93,400. I remember reading that somewhere, but then again I may be wrong.
