In response to HuskyColonial
And the track should be moved across Rt. 15 to bring
In theory moving the track would be good for football spectators. However since the stadium is a permanent concrete structure, I don't see a way to move fans closer - with or without a track - without it being completely cost-prohibitive. To do so would require lowering the entire field by a massive amount, so that the natural incline of the seats could be extended another 15+ rows towards the field on both sides. The expense of taking out the turf and a massive amount of fill, combined with adding dozens of rows of seats around the stadium would be prohibitive. The only other way would be to blow up half the stadium, move the field closer to the existing side, and then rebuild an entire new half of the stadium close to the new field. Don't see that happening either.
JKrun, I believe Bucknell is the only PL school with a track that goes around the football stadium. Is that correct?
