Are we still considering this? It would be very cool to add more capacity, plus the aesthetics of it would be awesome!!

Don't think so until we start having more sell outs that warrants expansion.

Agreed. We have to start selling out the cupcake games before they even consider it.

It'll be at least 10 years before they consider that again.

Dude we don't even sell out our current stadium for every game. Expanding would be retarded.

Guys. I was being sarcastic. We aren't fill up the stadium now, and if something doesn't change with direction of the football program, attendance will go down further.

Just wanted to throw out a "WTF" post to break up the monotony of all of the coaching /AD speculation threads. Maybe i am getting a little stir crazy not knowing what the future holds.

I honestly expected more of a backlash calling me every name in the book.

1) Bowl in the upper deck
2) Cut ticket prices in half
3) ????
4) Profit!

I wish they'd spend money to brick the entire exterior of JHS.

I kige that so hard, but at the same time I hate that we're losing the ability to swing our dicks around in regards to stadium capacity

Better hope you get some sort of air flow through the concourses if you did that.

Just bricking that whole exterior would turn JHS into a brick oven

I don't mean a solid brick wall. Just covering up the exposed concrete pillars.

Is it too much to ask for a properly working sound system?

Did you know up until 2010 we outsold Bama in season tickets by about 6k in tickets? Right now Bama sells about 1k more in season tickets than Auburn does. Even though they say there is a waiting list for thier tide pride, they sell about the same amount of season tickets as we do, despite the fact their stadium holds about 15k more

I feel like I read somewhere were they have sold out their stadium every year for several years now, unless I am mistaken.
