So do I understand this correctly? We sold out the so-called season tickets we printed. A number that is far short of the actual capacity. Seems a little disingenuous if that's the case. Meaning we would print more if we thought we could sell them.

How are those "lounges" working out? A 2K reduction in capacity to get them seems a little ... odd. Are they being used?Quote:

I think that they are being sold out pretty easily and they make more money on them than just regular upper deck seats. If it were me, I would do the same to the East upper deck, chairback the lower bowl, add premium boxes to the west side, and bowl in the South EZ with premium areas. All of this would decrease capacity and increase income.Quote:
