Reser Stadium is getting a major facelift on the campus of Oregon State.
And there’s been a lot of progress on the $153 million Completing Reser Stadium project.
One of the most prominent new features of the venue is the concourse, which will have with an open design that allows fans to see the field unobstructed.
"The wall of the concession stand is right here. So, if you just peek through this little gap, we can see the field no problem right here. So, I'm waiting in line, but I can watch the game and hear the excitement. I'm not in a concourse surrounded by concrete,” explained Ryan Bucher, Oregon State’s Associate Athletic Director for Facilities and Event Management.
Now the stadium’s east and west sides will be more connected, which excites head coach Jonathan Smith.
“You can get around the stadium and access it from all ends. I think that'll continue to make the gameday awesome,” said Smith.
As the project continues, Reser may not be the most aesthetically pleasing building to take in games this fall.
But fans will get to see progress.
