Yea. I feel bad for them getting 100,000 fans at a game

That’s why Franklin went to playing cupcakes like us for the white out. For a while they were below 500 in them

I don't see any cupcakes for their white out games. RU has never been the white out opponent

That’s right. We were their inaugural stripe out game.
they’ve played Purdue, Illinois and Minn as white out games

I don't see Purdue or Illinois in the past 15 years.

...and I feel really, really bad 110k+ have endured losses in their five highest attended White Outs! Hey, wasnt the drug dealing fraternity and the father supposed to make an appearance during the White Out, halftime show?

They may get 100k but it is the absolute worst stadium I have ever been in. (And I was in the swamp a few weeks ago - another train wreck) good forbid your row has normal sized people. Shameful.

It is a dump and the renovations were so badly needed. I would laugh when they suggest things like hosting the world cup or NHL winter classic. No profesional major event was going to use it prior to the renovations. It such a cluster right now, I still think they should have just built brand new.

At least we're 1-4 in our 5 highest attended games!

I laugh when folks ***** about getting in or out of Shi by car. Or the cost. Psu is a nightmare and that drive back on 2 lane route 80 sucks big time. Maybe if you live there and have nowhere else to go you're OK with it.

Pretty sure Beaver and The Big House have 18” per person. We have 23” IIRC. If you do the math if we reduce seats to an average of 18 inches per person. We could easily change the potential capacity by thousands, however, current fire code in New Jersey wouldn’t allow it.

A lot of older stadiums have similar seat size per person. Especially in the SEC (the original parts of the stadium, not renovated/New additions).
