10k has a lot of potential for a bunch of empty seats. Knowing A&M we’ll probably build a 15k capacity stadium and still only bring in 8k per game

Right now we can have around 3-4k and fill all the seats. That’s tiny. And the ultimately limits our ability to sell season tickets (all sold this year, I believe).

The location of the ballpark greatly limits our ability to build a 15k stadium. I think the goal should be around 8-9k in actual seats with a bunch of area to hang out to flex up to 12k. Get as many seats in the INF/fair territory and have fun hang out spots in the OF.

I agree 100%. Those SRO areas for around 3,000 - 3,500 would be an awesome addition if done right.

Nah.

Just build out stands over the train tracks and leave enough space under them to create a tunnel for the trains to go through. It would be kind of like how Klyde Warren Park in Dallas is built over spur 366.
