Great pictures of the concert

Garth is like the Michael Jackson of country music

That stadium won’t look that full again, unless USMNT possibly comes to town.

pretty sure the USMNT doesn't allow that many people to sit on the field, so I think you are wrong

Won't be full again unless a $EC/P5 school plays us or well known acts like Beyonce and the Rolling Stones

Or if UAB starts gaining national interest by continuing to win while beating some teams with a brand name across their jersey.

Well, no sh*t. UAB could never do it because our base can’t decide whether it prefers to sit at home and watch Bama and AU on tv or attend a game for the school they got a degree from. Funny, folks really took offense to this.

It won’t be that full again for a football game unless they add seats. Pretty sure fans are not allowed to sit on the field during a game. IDK.

Hopefully everyone had a great time and came away with positive vibe for the Home of the Blazers. That's a lot of potential ticket buyers.

The concessions were still an absolute mess. Everything else was solid in my book. It’s a great place for a concert.

Amazing crowd!

Serious question, do you think the concessions would be a mess if only hot dogs, popcorn, pretzels, nachos, soda, and beer was served?

Amazing! An "NBR" thread (which technically means it doesn't even belong in this forum) about a retired, no, wait, I want more of your money, country singer's concert gets turned into another UAB attendance thread. Now I really am sick of hearing about Garth Brooks!

It's the payment system. Card only and it has taken a good minute to process the transaction each time i've used it. That's after spending another minute watching them try and ring it up like they were filling out an excel spreadsheet or something. Basically every purchase takes a minimum of two minutes from the time they get their turn at the counter until they can get their items and walk away, and its probably closer to three minutes on average. I didnt get any concessions at the WVU game so im not sure if the BJCC arena switched to the same system or not.
