| Tour
of the OSU
Stadium |
| On May 22, 2001
the local chapter of the American Concrete Institute provided a tour of
the still under construction Ohio State University Football Stadium.
Several from Anderson Concrete (the main supplier of concrete for the
project) were in attendance. |

seats at the south end of the stadium. |
West side of the stadium and
the new media area on the top, with the 50 new luxury boxes just below. |

| East side of the stadium. The
field has been sunken 14' and is now 6' below the water table! Water pumps
have been installed and are able to either remove water from the field or
supply water to the field (which is real turf with an artificial base) |
An inside view, showing just
how construction is left to finish. |

| Several of the Anderson
employees are visible here. |
