COLUMBIA, Mo. - The University of Missouri athletic department announced the launching of a new feature on its web site on Friday. Mizzou fans and supporters can now log on to www.mutigers.com and monitor the progress of the new arena that is being constructed just south of the Hearnes Center.
A camera has been mounted on the southwest corner of the Hearnes Center and is linked to the web site, sending a continuous picture of the arena site 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Tiger faithful can point their browsers to www.mutigers.com, click on the Arena Cam icon on the front page, and view the site as it looks at that very minute.
The project, which is set for completion Oct. 1, 2004, will be home to the men's and women's basketball teams and will have a capacity of approximately 15,000 fans. Mizzou will begin its 29th season of basketball at the Hearnes Center on Tuesday, Nov. 26 when it welcomes Bradley to town at 7 p.m. For ticket information, call 1-800-CAT-PAWS (884-PAWS in Mid-Missouri).
