+1 I could see the point of complaints if we ever came close to selling out any game that isn't a Nebraska or Texas. Wildcatter and the new AA sweets will create much more revenue than seats we use once every 5-10 years.laxwyo said:And to your point, maybe we should expand to 50k so we can house all them Nebraska and Texas fans when they come to town. I'm not opposed to having a few more seats. What I am opposed to, is the constant bitching about losing a few thousand to put in some actual money generators. We can't even talk about the wildcatters or the AA renovations without you and a few others crying about removing a few seats. Got it?

But here's something that would tickle your fancy; instead of keeping part of the upper deck with the Wildcatter, just remove the rest of that deck and build yourself even More suites! That will knock us down to a cap of about 23,000. Then you can almost always have your sellouts and genorate even More money!!! Then we can brag about selling out practically every single game! Woohoo! I guess.
My bitching never had anything to do with renovations or suites. I'm all for it. But maintain what you already got. Keep our cap where it's at, EVERY phase of renovations has continued to drop our cap. That, I'm not ok with.

Got it. And you will continue to hear my bitching whenever I so choose to bring it up. Got it?

Also aesthetically it looks good were the club seats are. There is still plenty of room in the end zones to expand the capacity of the stadium when the need arrives. I'm hoping in the future for a good structure with thousands of seats at the south end zone of the stadium. If I had the $$$ I'd donate to see it happen.

Bingo. Hell put more suites on the West side and enclose one endzone with a set of lower stands for visitors, the band, and a new knothole section. Both Endzone sections at Oregon State are a good model
More money from more suites and maintain capacity or even increase it
