Lindsey Nelson Stadium,

[cardvolfan]

So it doesn't look like any added capacity and not much has changed? I know obviously the upper deck and boxes aren't done but only added was the student section which is all standing?

Capacity 6,200 as of now.

 

[OJJ]

Capacity 6,200 as of now.

Wasn't there way more than that during super regionals? I heard someone on Basilio show say they thought with standing room and people everywhere they guessed around 9000 or more

I never heard the 9,000 number. Thought I heard somewhere in the 7,200 range, but I could be wrong.

Can't quite recall who said it but that was their guess.

 

[cardvolfan]

Can't quite recall who said it but that was their guess.

I just looked at the official box scores and the regionals and supers ranged between 5,900 to 6,500.

Yeah I knew that but he was saying they let way more into standing room areas and students way down the line that he legitimately thought 9000 crammed in somehow

Yeah, looked like much more than what was reported. Concourses and SRO were overflowing. I bet there was north of 8K at Supers. Dont tell the Fire Marshall!

It's starting to look like a real ballpark. That interview with Alicia Longworth was very helpful.

(5) It appears the student section is largely tiered rails. Love that

That will help keep the rowdies vertical once they have reach proper lubricaton.

It's a baseball mosh pit. We need a catchy name for that section. What you got?

Since its right next to the bullpen... i'd get a big huge neon sign, hang it over the pen and call it the "ARM BAR". Also plays on Vitello's love for MMA.

I know rules won't allow it, but something like UT strikes out 3 batters in an inning...cheap beer for the next 10min.

Good idea Ernest, these are some good suggestions.

Good idea Ernest, these are some good suggestions.

I'm partial to The Bat Flip Brigade because of all the publicity the 2022/2023 team caused with the bravado and bat flips. It's a middle finger to all the national talking heads and detractors from other teams and other team's fans.

 

[Ernest T. Vol]

How bout Dong Pen?

 

[Halph66]

How bout Dong Pen?

They would never be on television. I remember when the Wichita Wheat Shockers made the baskeball tournament. They had foam fingers that were "SHOCKERS". ESPN put them on TV. I laughed my nuts off.

I figure they'll have so many cops down there, it might as well be called The Precinct or Doughnut Shop.

I've stood for almost every home game for the last 2-3 years on "the wall". Not sure I'm gonna do it this year but who knows. I like my little group which got a lot bigger last year at the end of the season and playoffs.

All of the “no standing” signs are down. Any chance you were able to receive a replica one?

Not unless someone borrowed one for me I asked.
