Why can’t we fill the north end zone?

They’re getting sold but are the people with those seats just migrating? Or not showing up? Looks kind of bad on TV

I think they can go inside with those tickets too.

That’s what I figured. Wish at least the bottom section was cheaper bleacher seating

Spoke to someone the other day who had NEZ tickets.

First off, it's a very wine and cheese crowd because of how expensive the tix are.

Second, those seats are essentially semi-suites, so everyone in those seats have the option to go up into the concourse for free food, drinks, etc as part of their seats.

So, what happens is, all of the wine and cheese people say, "oh, it's too hot, I'm going inside," and then watch most of the game there. They also all have enough money that they don't even care if they go every game, and then don't sell the tix on the secondary market. They just don't care.

Thats what's happening.

Stay home and watch on TV if you want to watch inside

I don't really have that much of a problem but wish we had that lower level for people who actually want to participate in the stadium atmosphere

Good luck telling that to people with more money than sense.

I wouldn’t ever consider the north end zone. It’s in the damn sun at every point during a day game. Screw that. 11 o’clock kickoff? Sun…2:30 kickoff? sun..

P5 college football fan seating will go the way of NFL luxury

packing the peasantry in like sardines in the plain bleachers is nothing short of offensive and it's going to go away

North Endzone is great if you’re an actual fan. The free booze and food is super clutch between quarters and to cool off/heat up. The problem is there is a very large crowd of WMT VP and Supplier folks that don’t give a fuq about the hogs. Also lots of women and children that just never leave the inside.

If I’m getting club seats they’re not gonna be outdoor, field level and in the end zone.

I like the option of being inside or outside.

The seats are sold, but as someone pointed out, the section is always in the sun during day-games, and theres lots going on inside.

The south endzone will look deserted at the first really cold game, too.
