Spurs Looking To Build New Stadium Downtown

[ChumpDumper]

The Frost Bank Center would have the added advantage of the Freeman Coliseum grounds as a place for all the livestock and a venue for the actual rodeo events. Then there's the carnival space to consider. Also, the Rodeo would keep the FBC relevant for at least three weeks of the year and would generate revenue.

Yeah they need to try and make that place Rodeoland or some .

[baseline bum]

I know it would drive costs up but they really need to figure out the parking situation there if not, create some kind of rail system from the various sides of town. I'm guessing people would be parking in the Alamodome parking lot as well but the traffic is going to be cheeks.

In Dallas, I liked how I could take a train from Arlington to the American Airlines Center.

I can't believe they don't even have Park & Ride anymore to the games. God I hate dealing with the parking lot at FB Center.

There will be an Alamodome garage built along with the arena and park & ride will be subsidized. I haven't seen the actual plans but the link I posted has all the road projects planned.

It seemed pretty orderly, what am i missing? Obviously, you had to avoid getting hit with a stray bullet going through the ghetto but once you're there it doesn't seem too bad.

I’m not originally from San Antonio, but I’ve been living here now for 4 years and I hope they get this stadium downtown built.

I know it’s gonna cause issues with traffic and maybe have us paying a bit more in taxes, but I truly believe it could help a lot of those businesses downtown and it would definitely be great to actually walk and do stuff before and after games.

[bigfan]

lol. Cowboys haven’t actually played in Dallas since they used the Cotton Bowl as their home base. The Legacy Texas Stadium was in Irving. Who cares if they move from Irving to Arlington?

As for the AlamoDome, that will always be underutilized as long as the McCombs family retains the concession rights. The event promoters and city don’t see a dime of that money.

Jerry wanted it right in downtown Dallas off Lamar by the police station next to the convention center and those two old bags wanted him to build it near the Cotton Bowl so after months of bs he told them to shove off. This Marvel plan looks great, would be great for downtown and every citizen of San Antonio and the Spurs have agreed to pony up big bucks too. Make it happen.

from the plans ive seen,. unless you rent a car or hotel room, you won't pay anything

like the Texans in Houston, there would be no Spurs in San Antonio without the rodeo.

Sure, but now they don't have to share a venue. It looks like the rodeo is going to take over managing the Frost Bank Center; I'm glad it's working out that way so they can expand their operations out there.

Hear, hear. 'Expanding their operations' will be great. We will need a new name for the Rodeo Road Trip.

No longer sharing the Frost Center with the rodeo ends the need for the RRT. It also means we could host the ASG, since that always fell during the rodeo.

[talkspurs]

If they get the new arena I would think we would get the All star game shortly after. no inside info but the new stadium better weather then most of the country. walk able downtown . dome and convention center could host events right there.

[ismael-robert]

We have hosted allstar...we have alamodome

[exstatic]

We have hosted allstar...we have alamodome

Yeah, 30 years ago, when we played in the Dome. Haven’t hosted it since.

Hopefully with much better looking jerseys

The only park and ride I've used is at crossroads mall. That was for the one Spurs game played at the Alamodome when we tried to break the attendance record. For the most part the traffic getting to a spurs game at the FB center isn't so bad, but i like to get to way too early.

I loved the park and ride because I could avoid paying $20 for parking and then waiting forever to get out of the lot after the game. Hopefully with them looking to have a good shot at a playoff spot they'll start opening the park and ride again. Was nice using the one on Randolph Blvd.

mayor jones isn't looking to competent; already lost her first battle.
