Game Atmosphere Improvements

[ManOfVision]

Anybody have practical suggestions for improving the game experience? I have one based on my experience tonight at the UNC game - change the location of the student section.

Currently, the student section, which has become louder and more "into it" in recent years, is relegated to a couple of sections near the north endzone. Meanwhile, in section 118 where I and few others were sitting at a cost of $35, the seats were largely empty along the 50 yard line. Why not extend the student section along the entire length of the sidelines so that students occupied the first 5 or 6 rows of each section? I believe OSU does this with great success. It's not like PSU has lots of big name donors and we need to reserve the 50 yard line seats for an exclusive few.

I totally agree on the student section. I was in 120 and a ton of seats were empty. Bring the students closer.

Halftime fireworks. I'm not on board with that...

I do like the way that the Viks came out on the field tonight. I've not been a fan of how they either introduce the offense or the defense, then bring the rest of the team out. Viking flags and the whole team coming out was much better...
