MADISON, Wis. – The engine of a helicopter quickly revved up on the practice field just north of Camp Randall Stadium as the University of Wisconsin's beloved landmark received some upgrades with the 2025 season over three months away.

Crews worked Friday installing new lights to the east and west sides of Camp Randall Stadium. Wisconsin Badgers on SI was there during the late morning to watch workers carefully complete the process of having the helicopter lift up each new light, fly it over to the east side of the stadium, detach the old lights, and fly them back to the practice field just west of Lot 17.

Check back more for later as we await information from Wisconsin about the new lights and their capabilities.
