No hot tubs, please. The risk of inadvertently creating a time machine that would take the ISU football program back to the 80s is too big of a chance to take.
Win the future! No hot tubs in the SEZ!
Although i agree about the winning thing before building but a bowled in endzone would create a buzz that thing would be full all season
How would we know if they never wear yoga pants? I wouldn't want them wearing yoga pants unless it was a special yoga pant weekend.
Speaking of which, we have cardinal and gold rules. Why not have yoga pants game? I was thinking we could do this the Tulsa game or Western Illinois game.
I was under the impression that opions were welcome here eve if not popular. It just seem like a terrific expense to add 3-5K seats that will prolly sell for less than $10 and may or may not be full.
I'm a firm believer in supply and demand. If your selling $10 tickets now and you build more seats they are worth >$10.
Cost of project divided by # of additional seats divided by >$10 = long time to pay for.

The discussion is now about yoga pants. Start a new topic if you want to keep being Debbie Downer!
So we need to win the conference before our sold out stadium should be upgraded? We sell all the tickets for every home game.
Last year we could have used more seats. The SEZ that was proposed earlier was for an additional 2500 seats, pushing us to that 60K area. It's not like we are adding 20K seats.
This will allow us to add seats, or price up the seats if we keep the demand growing. Right now, seats in the SEZ are about $15/game. With donor seats going up every year, you could double those seats price and still have cheaper seats. It might help with some sales, because not everyone wants to sit in mud or a snowbank.
Time to fire this up.

My parents built onto their house a year or two after my brother and I graduated college and got jobs. When asked them why they did it they said, "because we can". I have a feeling ISU is very close to this.
The people that keep objecting to this project will never understand that it has less to do with "selling out the stadium" and everything to do with stadium aesthetics. If you wanna be considered big time, you need to look big time.
Bowling in the Endzone would really create a big buzz. I think the new scoreboard had an effect on attendance this year and the SEZ would do even more than that.
People will be more willing to come to games to sit in the SEZ than they are to sit on the hillsides, particularly in Oct and Nov. A lot of people would trade up for actual seats as Al said.
The bowled in SEZ doesn't call for a lot more capacity, it just upgrades seats that were hillside before. Add in the new draw of having a great view of the new scoreboard and I think you could sell a lot of bowled in EZ seats. I know there were a lot more people in the South Hillsides this year than the North just to see the scoreboard better.
True. Though, I don't what's worse - Their argument, or the rest of us continuing to argue with them about it. It's a message board paradox I guess.
I'm still ****** neither (folks or ISU) completed their improvements when I lived in Iowa - jerks.
Hey rebecacy, has there been any talk about adding beer sales to Jack Trice? I think that would be a good way to raise funds for the SEZ and contribute revenue for the future. It seems to have been pretty successful for WVU this last year and I think it would be good for ISU as well.
