I decided not to start a new thread but resurrected this one.

I went by Campus today and while there I checked in on our home campus.

Well some asked for it while others didn’t but more seat backs are coming.

West side middle bowl (below)identical to the ones on the east side. Like on the east side, the end sections will not be getting them.

West side lower bowl (below work being completed on the frame first) will be like the ones in the lower bowl on the east side.

Good luck to the people in that seating area. I can tell you from experience in SEC 9 that you will get to know the knees of the people that sit behind you very well. Word of advice, sit down as fast as you can after National Anthem to stake your claim! Somehow work out the balls of your feet because they are killing you from leaning forward the whole game. Enjoy!

and its BYOS - Bring Your Own Seat Belt otherwise you’ll be sliding forward…they suck
 
The 2nd tier middle sections have had the terrible seatbacks since Cragg “installed” them. What am I missing besides positive improvements towards the permanent seatbacks to the bleacher half of the lower bowl?

I'm a little confused. Aren't the seats located on the north (union tpk) side and south ( grand central) side of the court, not east and west?

I thought the major change was to be seatbacks on the north bleachers side to match the ones on the south side.

I thought the school eas aware that the half seatbacks in a few rows above the lower section were a bust.

The new seats in the lower bowel will match the existing seats on the other side. These will not be the unpopular makeshift seats of the upper bowl.

That is my understanding. It isnt that those seats are so bad, there's just no room for them upstair between rows.

I know what you guys mean but there isnt a lower bowl since bowl refers to a round or oval seating configuration

Yes you are correct about the direction as in my mind zo turned the directions around while typing.

Some in the administration knew they were a bust but dioxin the argument.

Geography aside, that’s what I wrote “lower bowl (below work being completed on the frame first) will be like the ones in the lower bowl on the east side.”
