[edit] 1987 Collapse

Is Husky Stadium the only facility where the construction of a seating area collapsed during construction?--BigMac1212 18:15, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

I would think that that probably has happened before, but idk. --Kraftlos 02:26, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Problem with Image

All I got was a red X, and when I right-click to bring it up, it won't. Could someone please fix it. BiggKwell 05:29, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Map it

Does that map it thing at the bottom really help? It think its a bit confusing. Husky Stadium was just a temporary host for about a year or so, it really can't be considered a successor to the Kingdome. --Kraftlos 01:52, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] New Image

I'm new to Wikipedia, so please excuse my ignorance regarding the rules for photos. The image of Husky Stadium currently in use detrimentally portrays the stadium as it was shot when it appears to have been 1/8 full (likely during the pre-game). How about a photo with a full stadium? 76.22.0.91 07:58, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Bias and Consistency

The opening introduction seems a bit biased. One typically does not use the terminology "beating" to describe the results of a sporting event when one is trying to be unbiased. Additionally, why quote the USC quarterback about "seeing" purple, when the prior comments were focused on the noise? It just seems a bit unprofessional. 140.254.45.26 21:23, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

• I've attempted to remedy this problem and will continue to work on it. Cumulus Clouds 20:44, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Major editing needed

This article is in sorry shape, it's needed more (and better) references for a long time, an overhaul of the subject divisions and checked for violations of NPOV. It could also benefit from better pictures of the stadium, which I will try to get. City of Manchester Stadium (FA), Gaylord Family Oklahoma Memorial Stadium (GA) and TCF Bank Stadium (GA) may be used as guides for improvements that can be made to this article. Again, I will continue to work on making necessary improvements. Cumulus Clouds 20:44, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sources

For anybody inserting sources into this article, please read the guide on formatting citations properly.

In addition, I believe both the sections dedicated to quotes about this stadium are inappropriate and would be better suited to wikiquote. Cumulus Clouds (talk) 06:29, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
