UGA fans, any plans to upgrade the sound system and/or video boards?

I know y'all let the play on the field do all the entertaining, but I think it is time for a major upgrade in your guys stadium 'experience".

A little lacking if I may say so myself.

You are gonna take some heat but you ain't wrong. The experience is far better than it used to be, about the time Mark Richt was hired it was lousy and had been since the 1970s. The crowd is fantastic now but it used to be a social gathering where a football game broke out.

I have spent many hours in every section of Sanford Stadium and like most college stadiums the stadium experience itself is not great. Horrible seats (good site lines though in most sections) and getting in and out if a nightmare at times. The tailgating is not what it used to be either but the in game crowd is infinitely better so thats a wash. I wish they'd lower the seating capacity by about 20,000 seats and put actual seats in the thing but it will never happen. NFL stadiums are souless but most college stadiums are just bigger more uncomfortable high school stadiums...and Sanford is kind of one of them...
