Also, the skyboxes are different prices. And according to the Birmingham News, Arkansas doesn't structure its ticket sales the same was as Alabama. I don't understand the point of going through this exercise. It's totally pointless, especially if he can't get the numbers right.

Why in the world did they put a bunch of chair backs in the upper deck on just one side of the stadium? That seems random.


Anyone?


I know alot of seats on that side have been owned by Tide Pride members for several years. Maybe to up there value after the addition of the other side? Don't know really.

Have they been there for awhile or are they recent? I've just never noticed them before and it seemed random. If I was in the lower deck, I would be pissed that I paid that much and still had to sit on bleachers.

#4=#5.

Get over it.

Only #4 is maxed out, #5 still has an entire endzone to renovate and pass it.

Are you going to be able to handle that?

I know Alabama thinks they are #1 in everything and all, but get over yourselves. Your stadium already ranks behind LSU on every damn ranking you can find

This is america's problem,... everyone is to damn lazy.

This isn't hard but I can't do it without a little help.

Alabama makes more revenue as they should. There general ticket prices are higher than ours and have slightly more skyboxes at the same price for box.

However, since Arkansas went with more luxury seating and will have more skyboxes in the future than Alabama, Arkansas will have more revenue than Alabama on stadium revenue alone simply by structure design.

If Alabama didn't have so many general people wanting tickets they could've made even more profit but that wasn't the case.

85,000 luxury stadiums will make more than 101,000 none luxury ones.

The only difference to offset this is if Alabama starts to charge general seating prices as the same as Arkansas charges for Club Seating. That could possibly, just possibly offset the numbers again.

Prime Example.. Mizzou will shoot up the later with their crappy stadium if they put in 35 skyboxes at $40,000 a pop.

I really don't know, have to ask someone else. I always carry my stadium seats just in case.

No, you are the one that failed. Your statement was every ranking you can find. Reading comprehension must not be your strong suit.

Obviously it isn't yours either

Leave it to this retard to jump into a stadium rankings list, and when told they rank behind LSU in any ranking they can find, completely miss the discussion's point.

I'm going to change my fail to fayle.

Are these price points accurate for Alabama?

Adding chair backs to bleachers is not what we are talking about. We are talking about AC cooled seats and exterior seats with DIRECT access to club bar area as Child28 showed earlier.



I got you. The upper west has chairbacks, but no direct club access. The middle deck, or middle level whatever it is, right underneath, is for the Ivory Club. I wouldn't know how many seats that is. The stadium club can be accessed from anywhere in the stadium you sit, you have to purchase the pass on top of whatever your normal seat contribution is. There are 1,000 of those passes, it's basically a drink mixing/eating area with TVs and couches. So I would say (guess) the total club space is about 5,000 persons at BDS, but with all varying prices and donations to move up the list I have no idea how you would figure revenue up for it.
