Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 1524021, member: 27"] I really like the look of the new ribbon board that was installed on the facing of the lower deck in the western end zone area. They haven't installed a similar one on the eastern side yet, which is a shame. They sold almost all the open seats in the middle to upper areas of sections 301/302 as part of Homecoming. These are normally empty. It was nice to have people nearby, even if most of them were not fanatics. They were really pushing a hashtag. I think it is new. It might have been #orangezone. Whatever it was, it was up on the main ribbon boards a lot. Still a lot of ribbon time given to posting of inane tweets from the twitter people. What a waste. Didn't notice any improvements on the out of town scores or statistics front. Though they use the ribbon boards for non-advertising purposes so much I rarely look at them anymore. Could be wrong. They used to announce out of town scores for conference games and games against rivalry schools. That remains in cobwebs. There is still no place where out of town scores are constantly shown, like they used to do before Dr Gross came on board. I want a place on a ribbon board dedicated to out of town scores and another place dedicated to real time statistics. Let's use the technology to improve the fan experience. They didn't show the controversial replays. Again. Very disappointing and short sighted. Why should fans that stay home have better access to this than the fans that go to the games? The ridiculous DJ is still there but I think his role has been reduced. Still tried a cheerleader driven cheer contest that failed miserably, as they always do. I think they might be playing a little less canned music and I think the number of long, in your face advertisements read by the PA person might have been cut down a little. The guy chosen to try a FG was allowed to kick from the 25 and actually made it. Most have struggled to reach the goal line. The PA guy still talks too much and continues to make a couple major gaffes every game. I don't know if it is Mr Excitement (based on the quality and quantity of the announcements, I suspect it is), but whoever it is needs to be replaced or at least have their dosage of medication changed.
