[QUOTE="MountaineerWV, post: 129508768, member: 1763401"] I've attended many games at the Coliseum. Seats are OK. Everything else is a bit bland, but OK. However, IF....and I said IF....they replaced it with a new arena, I'd definitely cut down on the capacity. My reasoning is that big is not always better. Right now it seats approximately 14,000? I'd cut it back to 10,000 or 11,000. Makes tickets harder, more competition for them, creating more of a "need" to go to the games, and on the occasion there are games of 8,000-9,000, it's still packed. Look at Oregon's football stadium. If you watch a game, you'd swear the attendance is in the 70,000 or 80,000 range. But capacity is something like 56,000. I'd do the same for the next football stadium we get. No need to try and keep up with all the others and increase the capacity. [/QUOTE]
