Agreed.
The last time I saw UC at Ohio Stadium, I was three rows from the top of the top deck. An old guy collapsed getting to his seat behind us and the EMS staff had to respond. This was what I noticed:
(A) We were so high up that when a Police helicopter came to see what the problem was that we were buffeted by the rotor wash from the hovering chopper.
(B) The EMS had to strap the poor guy into a mountain-rescue litter, set up belaying lines, and lower him down the aisle like he was on a mountain-top (and I am not kidding about this).
© When the game actually started, we might as well have been airborne: we could see "everything" but could make out little. There was a time-delay on cheers and crowd noise reaching us. You could "hear" the band, but it was hard to appreciate the music. It was like "being in" the Stadium without actually "being in" the stadium.
(D) We had to arrive very early and leave very late because to the shear length of time to just get to the seats. And that included using the four-story escalators on the visitor's side...which I didn't use on the way up, but did use on the way back down just because.
Nippert really is a gem. There isn't a seat in there that isn't part of the game.
