I am not from up north, but I have been there pre-match and have had to come from that direction probably 4 or 5 times. Never anywhere CLOSE to 5 minutes from I-15. And that's including trying the Beck Street route.

Takes about 20 minutes, yes. About 2-5 minutes more than it took me on average to get to RES in my experience. Maybe I just hit bad traffic. 4 or 5 times. In a row.

Well, for me it would be a difference between a 75 minute drive and a 60 minute drive. It kind of sucks already, but I'm not sure what the point is here.

Sorry, and I don't mean this to be personal. It just confuses me that there is so much whining in what amounts to be a couple of minutes difference in travel. Apologies to Deuce and others who have had to live through this several times.

But, only on the condition that we fill the stadium to capacity! (65,000) 🙂

It's alright bordy... I am sure we will have the conversation at least half a dozen more times before the staium is done.

The Ground breaking is tentatively scheduled for August so i am sure we will get to discuss it then and everytime someone posts pictures and updates...

Don't apologize... it is all part of the fun just like my moaning about people moaning... it's all good!

Won't BYU's administration just love seeing all those Budweiser advertising boards? And the beer advertising that might be on the visiting team's warmups.

I can't see how there will ever be a national team game at LES because I don't think US Soccer would agree to all of the requirements that BYU would have. I would like to see it, but it ain't gonna happen. I wish the SSS was going to be bigger.
