No compost heap? How about inviting sandal-clad hippies to bring their guitar and "jam" along with NUMB? Tofu dogs and gespacho at the concession stands?
:) - nice to see the South hasn't kicked all the liberalness out of ya, Jimbo, though some of those head blows apparently landed.:)
And your old buddy Mayor Daley may have helped you had you not been so mean to his Olympic bid! He has made Chicago one of the greener cities in America and increased bike path (which is something you could add to your section - lots of bike racks).
OK, enough fun ... a serious response ...
While it might seem to be the most anti-green crowd this side of a NASCAR race (hooray fossil fumes!) ... I can see this idea catching on -- especially, as you mention, with the mass transit angles NU has. Like I said, it's clearly not the lack of excitement, so let's put everything on the table to try and draw fans from Chicago, Evanston, the North Shore and more. And I've never been a fan of that south end zone anyway - so turn it into an amusement park if you think it will work (or use the Arizona hottub solution ... though that may not work in November).
Overall, though, I like my jumbotron idea better.:) In the words of Buddy Garrity, I have two words for you ... "JUMBO" and "Tron"! Minnesota's sure looks snazzy with the skyline in back of it.
GO CATS!!!
