Re: Things are very quiet in Ames | |
It really seems silly to me to build more than one level in the south endzone. It is my understand that a bowled in south endzone would essentially replace those hillside seats and bring our seated capacity to a little over 50,000, as right now, i think it's at 47,000 seats, and when we fill all 4 hillsides we can get 57,000, so therefore wiping out half the hillside capacity would presumably put 5,000 more actual seats giving us a seated capacity of 52,000. If we put butts in those seats consistently AND fill the north hills for 4-5 years, then we think about adding the upper deck. It's just going to look stupid having an empty upper deck for every game that isn't Iowa or Nebraska...
