Construction of the roads around the stadium is supposed to begin in a few weeks, with construction of the stadium itself beginning next spring! I'm pumped, and can't wait until I can go by the site and see construction happening. Especially when they start work on the stadium itself. It will be amazing to see the structure actually going up in those parking lots! I hope they put up a big sign that says, "Future home of Golden Gopher Football," just so I can take pictures and enjoy it as I drive/walk by.
