Inside The New Building


Thursday brought a chance to take a quick walk through Floren Field House and it's impressive. To see an aerial shot of how the building is situated behind the visiting stands, click here. The weight room seems to stretch almost the length of the building. (Click here to see the floor plans for the building.)
The enormous weight room as seen from the mezzanine at the north end.There are no "luxury boxes" in the new building, but there are areas where guests on the top floor will have a wonderful view of the game. Coach Buddy Teevens leads the way past floor-length windows overlooking the field. Last but hardly least, work progresses on the loo at the north end of the stands.

One quick note: Anthony Gargiulo will be sitting out this weekend's Calgary Stampeder game against Saskatchewan to allow his swollen knee to recover. He reports there's no structural damage and thinks he could play on it if needed, but rest is a wise decision in the face of a schedule that stretches 18 weeks. He's got a quick note on his blog.
