Your before and after glimpse of Commonwealth Stadium. [/caption]
The Commonwealth Stadium renovation is over, which means those of us watching on the stream just woke up from a nice little nap. Nick Roush is working on a full recap, but here's one more nugget of news to hold you over: the capacity will go from 67,000 to 61,000.
Fans who have tickets in sections 219 through 232, rows 22 through 29 will be displaced as part of the construction process. UK will contact fans with tickets in those seats and give them the opportunity to relocate their seats for 2014. After that, the entire stadium will be reticketed, with the season ticket holders who have had their tickets the longest getting priority on selecting new seats.
The student section will also move to the east end zone, with allotment reduced from 6,000 to 4,000-5,000 tickets. (I was mistaken before, 4,000 to 5,000 is the correct number from UK.)
