Max, Ehlers taking decades of Ram history into retirement 17 Dec, 2020
Doug Max (right) worked with Tom Weimer to get the iconic “Rocky Mountain Rumble” sculpture installed at the main entrance to Canvas Stadium. It was one of many construction projects that Max oversaw during his long career in CSU athletics.
Next time you’re at Colorado State University, and you see majestic Canvas Stadium keeping watch over the southern edge of the main campus, remember to think about Doug Max.
It was Max, you see, who oversaw the massive undertaking that led to the creation of Canvas Stadium in 2017. The two-year, $220 million construction project provided an on-campus home for CSU’s football team and has become a community gathering place for hundreds of events.
