Falling concrete forces cancellation of events in Stegeman Coliseum in Athens

ATHENS -- The sky is not falling at Stegeman Coliseum, but the ceiling inside it is.

Sounds like they might need a structural engineer. I wonder where they could find one.

Well, they did fight for an engineering department.

I caught a game at the Steg this season for the first time. Even beyond any sort of bias, it’s one of my least favorite arenas I’ve seen a game in. The shape is weird and put me a mile away from the court where I was sitting. Everything was yellow tinted from the lighting. The arena feels as dated as you’d expect. The atmosphere was decent because they were playing a brand name opponent. The cafeteria-style concessions worked pretty well too and prices were good. I’d only go back every other year for COFH.

Didn't the dinosaurs die off from stuff falling from the sky. Same thing my happen to the Stegasaurus.

Maybe they'll take inspiration from their goofy arch and slap a column right in the middle of that bad boy.

this reminds me of our roof leak in ‘08. Maybe it leads to UGA renovating their arena or building a new one.
