Expansion is nice.

1. improve lighting in the along the concession area. Maybe add some red LED lighting.
2. Hang banners up through out the stadium around the concession area
3. Create a park entrance into the stadium. In front of Adidas store, the whole area needs to be a park like area for a nice entry into the stadium. You could put the statues of Cardinal greats in the park- Johnny Unitas and Lamar Jackson for sure.

Vince said in an interview on Friday that the next update would be replacing all the pink seats. He said there wearing out and the don’t make them anymore and there also cracking. He said it’s a safety issue. They will be replaced with the flip up ones like the new addition. That will be followed by replacing the flood lights with LED lighting, which can come on quickly. I think that’s to go with the red and black lighting we didn’t get to see last night. But first money has to be spent at some of the other venues. All of the above ideas you mentioned are good.

How about putting stats on ribbon boards. You needed binoculars to see them on the corner of south tv. Ads were bigger on the video board. Pitiful that we use a 5th of board for ads

And they should have plenty of old banners in storage. Several from Bailout Arena, and who knows how many that were just removed along Floyd St.

That's one thing--banner removal--I'll hand it to the news guys about...

I loved the Stadium expansion but it still needs some improvements.
1. Replace pink seats
2. Sound system still needs work. Couldn't hear even when Stadium was empty late in game.
3. The Stats on south video board are so small I literally couldn't read them from expansion seats. Will need binoculars next week.
4. Need some kind of aisle lighting in upper sideline deck. It gets really dark up there in night games.

1. Read my post above about the pink seats.
2. That’s s new sound system. I’m not sure if it’s fully functional or if it was the rain but it wasn’t very clear

Once the pink seats are replace with the flip up seats like in the new addition they will replace the flood lights with LED lighting to go along with the new red lighting.

With the new black wrap around the base of the stadium I don’t mind the pink as much. LOL!

Are the seats in the upper deck flip up seats also?
I’ve never been up there as many times as I’ve been to games at Cardinal Stadium.

Just checked with my son who sat up there once and he said there bucket seats like the lower level.

So I count 12 former players, coaches and 1 AD.

Anyone in the know should take the names and forward this.

Other Stadiums do this.
They should do it
Git err done.
