I think it's a little crazy for a school district to spend that kind of money on a football stadium for one school.  But, it wouldn't surprise me if they fill the entire 18,000 seats on game days.  Their band has nearly 700 members and actually requires 1,000 seats with the equipment.  The halftime sight alone is worth catching a game.  I would think that Allen will be a powerhouse for years to come, unless they eventually split the school into two.

Do mean as in growth?  I live in Frisco now and it continues to grow, but unfortunately will never have a 5A school as that is the cities model...right now we have 5 4a's and 1 3a which just opened last year.  I will be at the Allen vs SLC game at the end of the month..can't wait!

Did they name it after their superintendent?  :)


I'm sorry. I just couldn't help myself.

So now that the old Sup. for BISD will be officially retired as of 8/31/2012, will these tired types of jokes still present themselves?

Had BISD waited to name the stadium after him on Sept. 1, 2012. ;) ;D

BTW, you will not see me initiate any jokes about this subject.
