I think along the straightaways you'll be able to see pretty good (as long as you aren't on the bottom 5 rows or so especially with the giant video board they are installing.

Now in the turns it will be really, really bad.



Picture with new video board here.

So they are gonna crawl their fat, hillbillie asses into their pickups, drive hours to get to the site, pay big bucks to get in....to watch the game on the biggest TV in the world! Makes alot of sense to me.

Who's your team? Unless it's Bama or LSU, you'll most likely be worse than us this year.

What does this have to do with Butch Jones being a shitty, gimmicky coach?

Yeah, we have tickets in the Kulwicki Terrace, and I am not looking forward to that view. Only way to see the action at the other end of the field is with the big TV.

Do you see how small the people are at that view? They are halfway up the stands, in the first row of red it appears, and you can barely make it out. It is an interesting event, but unless you are in the first few rows, that isn't a ticket you are buying to actually watch the game.

Maybe they can pipe in sounds of race cars roaring around the track to alleviate their angst.

I think I am the only one on here that has seen them in person. They sat across the isle from me in Gainesville, I used to have a picture of me standing behind them but it got deleted.

It's nothing but a big "money-grab" neutral site game, WITHOUT ANY of the so called big NFL stadium amenities and a view from about 1/4 mile BACK ! Add the fact it will be hot as blazes....why not pay 3-4 x MORE than a good SEC home game ???

dam, reminds me of the Houston UCLA basketball game that was the first to be played in a dome. Floor out there with just regular seating. 55 K showed up and brought binoculars.

Enjoy that Jumbotron watching all the injuries on that temp field. What's the O/U on knees?

Is this spectacle worth it? You're about to find out.

BMS + college ball + greed - common sense = tenny/VT. Y'all have a good time now.

What's the line on this being the last time a SEC game is played on a temp field?

I watched a Celtics/Knicks game from the mezzaine at the old Madison Square Garden once. It looked like ants playing basketball.
