now allowing fans to let their tailgating continue inside the stadium with new seats that allow them to bring in coolers. Each Balcony will also have electrical outlets. Want to bring your own private refrigerator to keep your drinks cold for those warmer early-season games? Done.
so basically the same accommodations suite owners have always had. Sounds like they're just creating a new section of prime seating below the level of owning a suite, not re-inventing the wheel with Nascar rules of letting all fans bring in coolers.

was really worried we were going to see a final product like Ole Miss had a few years ago with the tents
Hahaha what a colossal fail that was. It was supposed to be these cool
Party decks … instead it was just 3 grove tents set up in the bleachers . So lame

This is great. Completely jealous.
Hopefully this starts the trend.

As impressive as carrying a fridge like that, and even using one arm after it is balanced is. It is not good to transport them on their side like that.

Any pics of the stadium section that allows this?

Exactly. I am guessing that they are basically outdoor sky suites without the frills. Similar to a handicap section with the area isolated by rails.
I am sure they will jazz it up and make it nicer some how.

They will have retractable shade sails and you can furnish it with certain types of seating and even will have plug ins if you want a refrigerator.
They will open the night before the game so you can stock it. They will even provide ice in limited qty's.

Upper Deck - This area of the stadium was empty for most games and now? They are sold out.

The design vastly exceeded my expectations. It's like the LFL for Football. I love it.

Really cool for State fans. For their sake, I hope there isn't a bad batch of fans that take advantage of the rules and ruins it for everyone
Unlikely. I've always seen State fans being great at keeping other fans accountable. It's why the old LFL existed for as long as it did.

That same scenario is occurring at Alabama — the prime spaces have been sold to corporations that have huge footprints, with catered food (or cooked onsite), open bars, and unbelievable amenities.
same thing killed the houston rodeo cookoff. It is still fun if you got a hook up (which isn't too hard to come by) but sucks for the average joe.

I love this idea.
I hope it's reasonably priced. I'm tired of seeing the common Southern man - the man who this game means so much to - get priced out of games.

I once told a State fan walking on the Square before the 2012 Egg Bowl "hey, heads up, you ought to put that beer in a cup or the cops might harass you" and he responded with "frick you"

I'm straight up jelly of this idea, and your stadium in general. Your renovation prior to Dak was great. Ours has continued to be lame.

How many people can you fit in a single party deck and how many tickets do you get when you rent the party deck?
Posted on 8/10/22 at 1:41 pm to Dire Wolf
Those party decks are gonna be wild when if State is playing good ball and playing a ranked team.
Posted on 8/10/22 at 2:14 pm to GatorOnAnIsland
I mean they're doing this because they can't fill the seats so
Posted on 8/10/22 at 2:22 pm to HotRock
It's a smart idea. Good for your AD.
