Ohio State announces $42 million Ohio Stadium proposal that includes cutting seats

If approved, Ohio Stadium will lose a few thousand seats, but mostly obstructed view ones.

It takes money to make money.

Ohio State unveiled Tuesday a massive $42 million renovation plan for Ohio Stadium that is expected to include the addition of 12 luxury suites and 35 loge boxes.

The four-year renovation project also restores and re-coats the 94-year old concrete on the C-deck, upgrade power distribution systems for the east, west, and south stands, improve and upgrade B-deck lighting, televisions, and speakers.

After the renovations, projected to be completed in 2012, gameday seating capacity would be reduced to 102,854.
