Lifelike size.
¿Por qué no los dos?
Looks like the entire seating bowl is in (without seats yet, of course). Looks great! It still feels so surreal even as I see pics and videos of the stadium being built. Still can't believe we'll be having a home opener there in about 16 months.

I feel the same way. Totally surreal after all this time it's finally happening. The stadium looks great. I love how close to the field all the seats are. Feels so much smaller than 25,000 seats. Yankee Stadium, which is 30,000 seats in the first two levels, is so much more expansive.
I just came to post the same video they have on insta.
Except it's not the exact same video, and the song is different.
And now I'm confused
Edit:
I think it is the same video they just swapped the music. Wild!
probably just the difference between free music on twitter vs insta.
sounds like it is the final beam. the roof on that far side probably was completed between when that other video was taken and today.

I'm looking online and it seems topping out is the last structurally critical beam.
I don't understand how that is relevant in this case either. Someone who knows please explain this confusion!!!
yea it's supposed to be the final structural beam, but based on the video posted, that does not look like the final structural beam. unless that whole other half of the roof is going to be built differently somehow. very strange indeed! maybe they just wanted to do it to "be on schedule". Though that would seem to go against tradition and the good vibes and luck the ceremony is supposed to bring.
