Memorial Stadium to Have Wider Seats/Reduced Capacity

If we can just start winning sometime, the cost starts feeling less expensive!   On a per win basis, I don’t even want to figure it.  Guess per loss, it goes down so ???   Lol

It's understandable how people would feel upset. The investment made throughout the years. What we're really discussing is value which for some time has not been very good.

Yes.  The trick is to avoid the angry long time loyal ticket buying fans who will be shut out or moved to other locations.  They dont own the seats but having rented them for 20-30-40 plus years, at premium prices (face prices have always exceeded market prices nearly every year since 1970s anyway).  Most understood there was a donation aspect to tickets.  Heck, it’s true of tickets to most public entity held events. Even high school games’ ticket prices are viewed as donation bucks mostly.  
 

I would guess there are a few thousand non renewals a year.  Perhaps these are the seats you try to eliminate.   Maybe there are quite a few nowadays so this won’t be much problem. ?

Don't know what all the answers are...As I was reading through all that in the survey, it started to sound like it could get complicated implementing changes. Think they need to focus on the quality and size of the seats primarily. I'm not opposed to incorporating a few of the other changes to an extent. What improves the experience for the most fans makes the most sense.

As you say non renewals might be a good way to minimize whatever disruptions might occur. I'm glad these things are being addressed and that improvements are in the process of being made.
