Smaller stadiums with more experiences are the future.

Other than every new NFL stadium, every SEC team that has won a conference championship, every winning Big10, Big12 and many ACC teams that have all had recent expansions in the last decade disagree with that point... sure.

Oh wait, since this is an article talking about soccer stadiums then I completely agree.

If you really think that bigger stadiums are the trend then that says a lot about your perspective.

Name me one P5 team that has decreased the size of their stadium?

Look at all the new NFL stadiums, Dallas - increase, ATL - increase, LV - increase, NY - increase, PHIL - increase. That's just 5 of the more recent ones and all went bigger than previous stadiums. The NFL doesn't have the most rabid fans.
NCAA - TX A&M just did an expansion. Missouri is completing an expansion. While both are adding luxury suites, they are also adding thousands of seats. There are now 9 stadiums in college football over 100,000 (only ut isn't a hard sell out for every game), each one has expanded in the last decade or so.

My perspective is football. Nothing else matters in this discussion.
While I agree that where we are TODAY, 45k is a great stadium. Where I want to be, whether that is P5 or the absolute best G5 team in the nation, 45K will limit the crowds.

In 2015, we removed the tarp because ticket sales going into this week were very strong. ole miss didn't even sell 1/3rd of their tickets. It's not like the stadium will be empty. Instead of 58k being a sell out, it's now 52k.

People acting like this is a game changer are off their rockers.

Correct. I think 40k is probably the max we will ever draw for home games that don't involve Ole Miss, Tennessee, Mississippi State, or Arkansas...and even then the product on the field has to be consistent with what it's been the past 5 years or so. If the product slips, attendance will go back to the 20k range of recent memory.

47k for AR, 41k+ for ECU and S Ill in 2017 say that isn't the case at all.

WHEN we win the AAC, go to the NY6 bowl and beat them, I think you see attendance spike upwards. We will continue slow and steady growth as long as we keep winning.

We have seen growth in every aspect of the program. HH membership, TSF giving, giving to facilities enhancement, season ticket sales and pretty much everything else has gone up recently.

We had 50k for Navy the year we started 8-0. If we were playing Texas and OK, or Bama and UT, then we’d average over 50k every year

Quote:One Power Five source suggested the NFL and MLB have been much more proactive in downsizing stadiums to create a more premium ticket.

Arizona State, Kentucky, North Carolina and Penn State are all in the process of downsizing stadiums. In marketing circles, that creates a more intimate experience. Marketers continue to struggle to find a successful balance in stadiums. Across all leagues, that means making the game experience as close to that living room experience as possible.

I dropped by the ticket office at lunchtime yesterday to pick up my football parking passes, and I saw three students come in to get passes while I was waiting. I'm not surprised they're out.

Been away for a while. Come back, and Tigernole is still saying dumb things - it's like nothing has changed.

Missouri is not "completing an expansion", rather, they decreased their capacity: https://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/mizzou...enovation/ "Mizzou will get going on the project shortly after the 2017 football season. Stadium capacity will decrease from just over 71,000 to around 65,000."

As aardwolf correctly linked, here are 4 more: https://www.cbssports.com/college-footba...-34-years/

"Arizona State, Kentucky, North Carolina and Penn State are all in the process of downsizing stadiums."

Here's 3 more: https://www.tampabay.com/sports/fsu-semi...g-alabama/

"The latest one is mighty Alabama. As part of the Bryant-Denny Stadium renovations, the Crimson Tide will reduce its seating capacity from the current 101,821, according to the Tuscaloosa News. Florida State already did so, dropping Doak Campbell Stadium from 82,300 to 79,560 before the start of the 2016 season. Miami's new-look Hard Rock Stadium dropped capacity to about 65,000 seats."

So that's 8 schools reducing capacity in about 2 minutes of Google searching. Others will follow, here's an article on the thousands of empty seats at the Swamp: Decreased stadium capacity coming https://www.gatorsports.com/2018/11/dool...ty-coming/

And these are just the renovations, many more P5s have tarped off areas as attendance has fallen.

Welcome back Jerry Lawler's Classic Memphis Wrasslin!

Penn State is only decreasing capacity by putting in more luxury seating. It's the third largest stadium in the world and is still selling out. It's gone from 57k to over 107k since I've been watching football. Doesn't exactly prove your point at all.

Missouri added seats, but once again it is because of luxury seating that total capacity went down. Their original plan was to add even more seats, but the funding fell through, which I think is mentioned in that article.

As far as ky, The stadium underwent a $110 million renovation in 2015. The renovation included a new press box, loge box seats, club seats, recruiting room, suites, concourses, bathrooms, lights, and exterior facade while reducing capacity to around 61,000. Which was a drop of roughly 4,000 seats.

ALL of the ones you mentioned are only decreasing size because of luxury boxes taking out seating. It has nothing to do with attendance dropping, but more about being able to soak boosters out of money.
If they city could put in more luxury boxes and they would sell, they would do it in a heartbeat and not care a second over how it affects total seating. In those above examples massive stadiums, much bigger than the LB have had seat decreases less than 5,000. While increasing revenue by new luxury suites.

I am not arguing that. And if you took the time to read, you would know it. His point was the trend was smaller stadiums or decreasing seat availability to increase season ticket sales and that is simply NOT the case. It's that they are exchanging general seats for luxury boxes and improvements. The Liberty Bowl has already done that. And I would almost agree with chair backing the two sidelines all the way up, but hopefully they would be smarter about pricing.

I know the board was a better place lately and couldn't quite put my finger on it, but leave it to tigx to jump into an argument and show their stupidity. But keep acting like you have a clue and can put others down when it is evident that you don't know what is actually being discussed.

i like houston's stadium

its modeled after the redbirds stadium
with open viewing from the concession stand

Everything you say is 100% wrong. So your normal post. Missouri added seats by decreasing capacity by 6,000 seats, huh? Tigernole math.

Remember when you said you were 99% sure we were getting a Big 12 invite? 6 weeks after we had been eliminated, and after anyone with a clue knew the Big 12 wasn't even expanding? Good times.

These people aren't decreasing seating to decrease seating. They are installing chairbacks. Sitting on bleachers for 3 hours sucks.

That would be the quickest, smartest way to right-size the Liberty Bowl capacity. Install as many chair backs as possible as quickly as possible.

The long term trend for college football attendance is down, despite what flat earthers like Tigernole think.

Actual Attendance has increased 50% on average over the last 10 years, Other schools have seen decreases over that time on average. There is 10x more blue on gamedays and double the anticipation of 10 years ago.


Our Stadium is TOO BIG for our program. Tarps should have been used for the last 30 years. It is what it is. we should be selling ads on tarps. How many people do you know that say ----ill pick up a cheap ticket at the last minute?

Im planning on grabbing tickets before the game. Scalpers gotta eat too!!!!

If you look at the stadium map for the game, basically all the good seats are sold out so the rest of the tickets will be sold to walkups. It will easily be 50K at the game. Memphis is a town that support winners. We weren't a basketball town when Pastner and Tubby were stinking up the city.

Grizz are another perfect example. When they are competing for playoff spots, you have a hard time finding tickets to games. When they are competing for lottery picks, you have a hard time finding people that want to buy tickets.... unless it's to see the opponent.

If you were anywhere close to the program, Allie explained exactly what I said. The night prior to the vote, ESPN was the one that changed it. They said they wouldn't allow 4 new teams and then threatened to renegotiate for any expansion which killed the expansion.

Once again, that is almost word for word out of Allie Prescott's mouth. I was actually shocked when he said it, because it's the first time I have heard anyone in administration confirm the truth publicly. We still operate on the NDA, unlike every other school that was dropped from the list. Strange how Memphis is the only one that did that. But, that kind of thing is apparently too cerebral for you.

Tigernole knows better - are you 99% sure about that? Like you were that Memphis was getting an invite, the day before the Big12 announced no expansion, 6 weeks after Memphis was eliminated?

Or like when you said earlier today that no P5 school had reduced stadium capacity? That was another Tigernole special.

Let me guess, you didn’t think the moon landing was real either, right?

If you just tarp off the areas above the upper portals on both sides, you probably have a 42k seat stadium. Just do it and say the tarps will not come off. If you want a ticket you better get one. It’s the perfect, easy solution because it right-sizes the stadium for the Tigers and allows the LB game to keep the full capacity. Cost of tarps should be close to free by outting ads on them. It aint rocket science.
