Mizzou Football Tours the East Side

Memorial Stadium has undergone a major facelift in the past 12 months.

In addition to the renovation of the West Press Box Tower that included a complete revamping of the luxury suites and media seating, the most significant component of Memorial Stadium's makeover is now on display for Mizzou fans this season.

At a cost of more than $45 million, 4,100 upper deck seats and 1,200 premium seats have been added to "The Zou's" East Side. A 23,000-square-foot indoor premium club space has also been added, along with an expanded concourse, an enhanced restroom and concession areas, a new ticket office location, more points of entry and new field lighting.

With the expansion, the stadium's capacity has bumped back up to 71,168 in 2014.

Wide receiver Darius White and some of his teammates toured the newest addition to "The Zou" on August 26, and needless to say, they liked what they saw. White, tight end Jason Reese, tailback Marcus Murphy and other members of the Mizzou Football Family sample the amenities that many Mizzou fans will get to experience this season, and in many seasons to come.
