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.






Is this the only way they can get their stadium to fill up?

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


It’s honestly a smart move. They basically converted the worst seats in the house into a party area that people will actually pay more for. Better than empty seats in the worst section in the stadium.

Why does Texas A&M struggle to beat State so much then?

The Jaguars are so bad they put a pool and hot tub in the stadium.

A $2,700 donation to the Bulldog Club and the purchase of at least eight season tickets worth approximately $225 per ticket are required for access during the entirety of the 2022 football season. Those who have acquired a Balcony but still have room to accommodate a few more people are allowed to invite guests to join them. These guests must purchase a single-game Balcony ticket to be allowed access to the area.

There will be 11 Balconies on each side of the upper deck, and many of them will vary in size. Ten of the 22 total balconies can fit 15 people each, leaving a dozen more spots with significantly different capacities. Of the remaining 12 Balconies, there are two each that can hold 10, 12, 18, 20, 22 and 25 fans.

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.


Agree 100%. I think it's true universally , it's the little guy who is so passionate about his team. Likely the blue collar guy that works hard and Saturday is a planned get-a-way to have beer and pull for his team. I think every stadium should do this.

Not sure what filling up your stadium has to do with beating Miss. St. Can you explain yourself? A&M is 5-5 vs Miss ST. since joining the SEC.

What we may have here is a "breakthrough" case of JDS (Jimbo Derangement Syndrome). This could be the first case by a fan of some other school besides gump or corndog. JDS could be going epidemic. If you think you may have JDS, you should contact one of the admins and have your account suspended for at least 10 days. If you think you still have JDS after being away from the rant for 10 days, then you should seek clinical help. If that does not work, get fitted for a straight-jacket.

You want mustard bottles on your field? Because this is how it happens. Bring your own cooler is a gateway threat!

As I recall, TAMU struggles with BOTH MSU and Ole Miss. But hell, they do with LSU as well. 8 wins is their ceiling. That and 5 losses, er, 4 losses and a forfeit.
