tschu Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 OK, I really, really REALLY Don't understand the "close off the corners" stuff. There is zero need, zero reason (can't put seats there because sight line would be obstructed by the skyboxes), and really for a non-bowl stadium, we barely have any corners. Have you all seen any other stadiums? 1 Quote Link to comment
Excel Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 How do you guys like the endzone seating? I can't think of a stadium with as much as memorials... seems like it would kind of be a drag for the spectator Quote Link to comment

Row seating matters though, the lower the better. Quote Link to comment
Overland Park Husker Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Are they really doing double ribbon boards on the east side? I think that will look tacky. Quote Link to comment

I can't think of a stadium with as much as memorials... seems like it would kind of be a drag for the spectator It just looks like a lot because it doesn't stack like many other stadiums. In reality, there are several other stadiums out there with fans technically further away from the field because they're higher up. If you're in the back, I'm sure it's not the greatest seat in the world, though. Quote Link to comment

For those of us with longer legs it's a little cramped, and they pack you in pretty good horizontally too. But having been in Kyle Fied's endzone last year I can say the view and experience is better in Memorial. At Kyle Field you are completely expose to the wind on all sides, making a balming 45 deegree night chilly for a Nebraska boy, and despite being horizontally close to the field you are all but vertically removed from it.

Jaybird Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I think the sound issues (can't hear PA in south stadium due to speakers only being in the north) as well as replay screens/ jumbotron for the people in north stadium should be addressed in the next wave of additions if there are any if not before. The benefit in sitting in the North stadium is that you can hear the PA but you can't really see replays very well from where my seats are (dead center north stadium towards the top) as the jumbotron is behind us and the other replay boards are angled such that they are hard to see. The benefit of sitting in South stadium is that you can see replays well but cannot hear anything. I still say the lowering of the field idea I mentioned above is an easy way to add seats and make the stadium look more modern. The financial aspect should be doable as the suites on the field should be very profitable. Quote Link to comment
