    I think MSU needs to come up with some temporary bleachers that they can use for SEC weekends and regionals and move for midweek and OOC games.
    I just don't know where you would put them. I guess you could put them on one of the concourses but that kind of kills the purpose of the 360 concourse. I don't think there's enough room by the scoreboards to do it.

    You can add additional upper deck sections on the baselines above the concourses/berms. Then build in RF behind and above the student section.
    And If they do a second loft - put rooftop seating on it like they have on the buildings across from Wrigley Field.

    Because you would have to find a company willing to spend that type of money on college baseball. And at this level they would probably want stadium naming rights.

    Should be after the 3rd inning. Figure you?re roughly an hour into the game at that point. If you?re not at the game at that point you probably aren?t coming. I think right now it opens up after the 7th which is ridiculous

    That is ridiculous. Should be after the 2nd inning. If I get their late, I will just politely ask you to move.

    I was thinking of something that folds up and can be moved. Not sure it absolutely would have to be incorporated into the stadium.

    And half of our fans won't move. I've had to get ushers to get people out of my seats dozens of times. I roam around the stadium and am in the outfield some of the game but will go back to my seats periodically and constantly have to run people out of them.

I think within the next 10-12 years we will probably do away with the berms and make that bleacher seating. And no.....GA Chairbacks ARE NEVER GOING TO BE A THING.
    The lofts are only 60k a year to lease?

    That's what they were at first. We looked into one but couldn't justify it if we couldn't actually own it so we got on at The Gin instead.

    You show people that you have the ticket for the seat they're sitting in, and they just refuse to move? That's bold of them...

    Have you ever resorted to grabbing them by their neck scruff and belt, and toss their asses like a Looney Toons skit?**

    True, and we've failed at the execution over and over. Maybe this time we'll get it right.

    Are there still plans to build more lofts? I know at one point that was the long term goal.
