Flush fans fund stadium renovations
By Jeff Metcalfe | The Republic
Maybe you’ll never watch an Arizona State football game from the Founder’s Club, with its $10-million price tag for a suite. Or the Coach’s Club, where the going rate is $500,000.
But those major donors are responsible for paying for much of the $268-million renovation of Sun Devil Stadium and upgraded amenities for all ASU fans.
ASU showed off the high-end clubs and suites on the west side of the stadium Friday, among the key projects this off season in the phased reconstruction of the 60-year-old stadium. The club spaces were not finished a year ago when the west side of the stadium was rebuilt so that work became a priority after the end of the 2016 season along with finishing the new home for football at the north end of the stadium and installation of one of the largest video boards in the nation.
