At the Al, I hear not totally new boards but bigger and better resolution that with other video expansion options will bring it up to date.  It's time for an update since the Al is 13 years old now but remember it was WAY ahead of it's time video-boardwise when it opened.   The problem was the Ralph opened the same year with state of the art boards so of course the Al looked weak but remember - It took the fargobarn a couple years to upgrade to even the Alerus level in 2001 and they'd been around for a lot longer...PLUS their in-house show was VERY amateur many years AFTER they got videoboards but that's another story.  
 
Video boards at the Betty are due but who's going to pay?   Small venue - have to hire a regular crew and buy equipment - spendy but something would be nice.
