Hit the Bricks!
The model of the Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder campus is made up of approximately 1.5 million LEGO bricks and measures 12 feet by 24 feet. This impressive display was built by the Colorado/Wyoming LEGO Users' Group () and features notable landmarks, including Old Main, Macky Auditorium, Fiske Planetarium, The Hill, and many other campus highlights. Additionally, the model depicts Folsom Field, showcasing the Buffs in action against their longtime rival, the Colorado State University Rams.
Additionally, Hit the Bricks! offers whimsical representations of campus life—some are realistic (like a Colorado Shakespeare Festival performance), others are historic (such as the debut of Star Wars at the Flatirons Theatre in 1977), and some are imaginary (watch out for the shark in Varsity Pond).
