    I can see it now....

    Ole Mac Duncan had a farm
    E I E I O
    And on this farm he had some teammates
    E I E I O
    With a brick, brick here
    And a bank shot there
    Here a brick, there a brick everywhere a brick, brick.
    Ole Mac Duncan had a farm
    E I E I O


    That thing is UGLY!!

    It looks tacky. I have to agree with the "barn" look. Although it may look more like an airplane hangar from the top picture.

    look at it this way, at least San Antonio has a new arena...wait till you see the new Louisville arena plans. You can make all the arena deals you want, people in places like kingwood are just going to vote them down.

    I'll admit that I was less than impressed
    with the new arena design, at least on the
    exterior.

    But the interior will be very sharp.

    A thing to remember is that the lead
    architectural firm on the SA arena is the
    same one that designed the Conseco
    Fieldhouse, the Rose Garden, the MCI Center,
    and Gund Arena, in addition to Turner Field
    and Bank One Ballpark.

    As was mentioned above, this arena keeps the
    Spurs in SA, so it looks good no matter what
    on that basis alone.

    That is a pretty damn ugly arena! [​IMG]

    I wish they could stay in the Alamodome.

    I love it when they pack 30-40 thousand fans in the Dome for a big game.
