it does make sense considering that they're selling "guaranteed" tickets, and then everything else is to just get in the building.

why's that?
Seriously? Because the North Endzone goes vertical, closed in and sits right on top of the field giving way better event experience and visuals.

South Endzone is fucking awful and set way too far back and flattens way too far out. It's garbage and hopefully one day they rip it down and replicate what they did in the north.

They said today they reserve the right to move it based upon what they end up selling.
I think they could have gotten 80k or whatever if they would have set it up like the NCAA Men's Final Four are set up in stadiums. Put it in the middle of the field, surround it with seats and just sell out the entire stadium.

After so many people it becomes an event to just attend anyway. Most the seats are gonna be terrible.
Correct, it's just an exhibition and a showcase for the team/school/sport and essentially a party. People will buy tickets just to show up and be part of everything going on.

We should pay off the SEZ before destroying it, IMO

I grabbed a couple tickets and am going for the unique experience of it. The view of the basketball court, on the football field, surrounded by fans will be fun.
And, I didn’t get any regular season tickets, so this is probably my last chance to see Clark play in person. From 80 yards away.

Not even Clark’s genes could make that happen

I think it’s super weird it’s considered “news”.
