Your lucky you heard back. I filled out the form right after it was sent out with my two preferred games to meet with the rep and never heard anything back.
Yikes

yikes. this sounds like a mess over all. Though the students end up skipping half the games even when we're good so not sure they should get a permanent say here (even though they have been great). Only way they keep benches is by having them sit in an endzone presumably? Are they relocating to a non basketball side? Guess keeping them on a basketball side would help increase capacity there...It’s also important to note that Ottos army doesn’t want to have individual seats and wants the benches to remain
However thats a tall task to ask them to not do a few sections of individual seats so they will be getting individual seats

I dont get how you can do any of this with the current concrete structure underneath and not make it worse. I would have been fine with just increasing the spacing of each seat and having permanent seatbacks in lower level. They could have had premium cushy seats in the 40s-50.
Then add cup holders on back of seat in front would have been nice in an ideal world.
I don't envy anyone involved in this process.
ah true. the basketball spot makes it hard. I forgot about that. how do they manage band seats too?I think the tough part with the students with it being a multi venue stadium, there’s no “good” spot to leave just benches for them
I also don’t envy them at all, it’s not an easy process in any way shape or form and your probably going to piss off more than a couple people no matter what

Biggest problem I had with the seat backs is that there was no rigidity in them. Some felt that they could lean back in their seats, so we end up with Waldorf and Statler from The Muppet Show lying back n our laps. Had to move to Row A this year to combat that.My personal opinion which doesn’t count for much…
Was for them to do just the “seat back” cushions that they have for all of the 300 level. Just install them permanently up there.
It wouldn’t have reduced any seating, it probably would have cut costs and would have been installed quicker
I think most people in the 300s would have been happy with that.
I believe the 300 level with the new seats will be a bit tight
Frankly the students don't sit down anyway and squeeze way more bodies in each row than there are seats. Fold up seats should actually be better for them than aluminum benches I would think. Although they won't make as much noise when you bang on them/yikes. this sounds like a mess over all.

The only solution is modified benches in blue on the non basketball side end zone. Frankly it makes a ton of sense. Put them there, overflow in 200s or 300s. A side effect is increased seating capacity too. Most of these kids do not need 21" seats. Heck most of the coeds go to Manny's and buy Boy Large shirts and cut them with scissors to show more skin.Frankly the students don't sit down anyway and squeeze way more bodies in each row than there are seats.

Non basketball side end zone - If you mean sections 122 - 126, not a prayer. Those become high priced side court seats for basketball.The only solution is modified benches in blue on the non basketball side end zone. Frankly it makes a ton of sense.

Only two hours for a game...deal with it LOLNon basketball side end zone - If you mean sections 122 - 126, not a prayer. Those become high priced side court seats for basketball.
So if I understand things correctly, a ticket rep will reach out to STH to discuss seating options this month?
LololololololoTheoretically, yes

I have been through “ my cuse account” I wanted to put down deposit early just in case it mattered for seat selection ( Season Ticket Renewal) There is no place for renewal deposit only for new seasons. So are they saying not until February?
given the track record.. Dec 2024When do we think new STH will be able to begin looking at football seats? April-ish?
Better pay in full or else your priority rating will suffer. Learned that lesson the hard way last year when I wanted to buy parking passes. Back of the line for me because I paid in installments.
