Student seating announcement

[SMU Pom Mom]

I'm not sure what I'm looking at. Where will the students be exactly?

[SmooBoy]

I love the attempt. TCU has similar sections. Get the band over there as well and do something different. No one sits there as it is. Nothing lost on this.

Next stop is figuring out how to get boulevarders away from Dallas Hall lawn rave.

I also expect most on here will beeyotch about it.

Glad to see them moving the students to the horseshoe.

Since we have Ruthie's Grilled Cheese in the other endzone, I cannot get the name Roofie's Party Pavilion out of my head. Now with even more popped collars, white sundresses, micro-rompers, and totally impractical footwear for a football game! Terrible, I know.

Presumably they'll wedge the visiting fans and bands in the other end where they belong and are harder to hear.

Looks pretty cool.

They probably should have made it a bit larger though. I am not sure it is big enough for our student section this year.

Build a bandstand... an American Bandstand

Band will be biggest in many years (possibly post-DP). *awaits typical band joke replies*

its plenty big enough for our student body. If you enlarge it appears to have about 7-8 levels or areas encompassing 3 half-sections and appears to have tarped, sun covered standing/milling areas on top, a section that appears to be indoors (concessions?) and then some regular seating for those that want to watch the game

We need to seriously try and figure how best to get rid of 10,000 seats. If it's like someone else suggested by taking out the north endzone and placing decks with bars and other creative ways...so be it..however we do it we need to do it with class and not just cover endzone seats with canvas SMU logos.

PK suggested as well to add a deck on the east side. You two getting a commission?

I bet they card, give out wrist bracelets, and then sell beer from that concession stand level. The whole thing is going to make for some nice tv shots.

Need to put a DJ and a bar up there. The whole game presentation needs to step it up every year. It's got to be cool enough in the stadium that the Blvd is second rate some how.
