The chair with its back to the field would have been super popular last season.

To make field level suites they would have to gut an endzone and take out a bunch of stands. This looks cheap and thought of in 5 minutes.

To me, if someone wants to be at field level, that's their choice. But the advertising graphics are horrible. It looks like a Cracker Barrel type experience.

As much as I hate this phrase, it fits this situation. Auburn being Auburn. The PTB have been constantly shitting on the fans for over a decade. I USED to have 4 scholarship seats. Gave them up a few years back after getting the "prison" quality food that came with the tickets, sitting on the ground to eat it because the freaking bleacher seats were too small to manage a plate and a drink! Jay Jacobs happened to walk past me and my daughter while we were sitting there, looked down, gave us a "better than you" look, and kept walking. This was about 10 years ago and the "donation" at the time was over $10K/year. I go to a couple of games a year now, and just buy tickets from fans. They are killing the tailgate experience. The jumbotron was a huge mistake, and still no chairbacks.

Imagine sitting right in front of the band...hope you have earplugs. Also having to deal with the opposing players when they exit. Let's also take away the flowers with the interlocking AU at each corner. Totally unfortunate. I wish we could boycott RevelXP and anyone that wants to take that over. It takes away all the culture and tradition just for some peace of mind of the campus cleanliness.

Yeah, no surprise at all that the folks responsible for the tent city are behind this ridiculousness.

I've yet to see someone who thinks this is a good idea

Sadly a company will purchase this for clients so it will be viewed as a success

The whole thing wouldn’t be a big deal if it didn’t take away from our iconic stadium. Scraping away character of the stadium for a few bar stools and a bar in the corner is never worth the business. Our stadium sells out of seats after all. Desperation is appropriate for the poors

These "field level" suites look terrible but why do people hate the jumbotron? It seems kind of cool

The Jumbotron is a legitimate part of the Auburn fan and gameday experience. I do not share in the scoreboard anguish.

This may be the most unifying thread we have ever had on this board.

This kind of stuff has to just be a money grab. I hope that is it and they don’t actually think this is nice and adds something to our stadium. They just won’t do any real renovations. It’s just slap and glue something new with some new paint here and there. It’s not adding benefit, it’s taking away something every time they do this. They need to do something big and of real substance or just leave it alone.

Now I realize that the previous “tear down JHS” thread was a little premature.

Now is the time.
