I don't doubt you, but what are the precedents of this type of disruption for the renovation of an athletics facility? I don't recall these kinds of problems existing when Stanford renovated its football stadium 20 years ago. I think Maples Pavilion underwent a renovation around the same time and a bit before that a pretty major renovation at Sunken Diamond. Did Stanford have these kinds of permitting issues then?
If there's one thing people have learned in Berkeley, it's that you can't put "Cal football" and "Rose Bowl" in the same sentence. The words just don't fit. You'd be better off linking "covered wagons" with "Mars travel." (Bruce Jenkins, Cal '70, SF Chronicle, Nov. 11, 2017)
