Offered free ticket to see Cohen speak at ECCC in Decatur tonight. Might make the trip. If so, any questions I should ask? Only one I can think of right now is whether he gets paper check or direct deposit.

See my signature below. Read it to him and ask him if he believes it.

Ask him to draw a baseball comparison to losing 5 football games in a season where only 12 touchdowns are allowed.

Ok. Some guy named Karl ranted about Moorhead for a few minutes during question time. Quite awkward with no questions - just rambling. Said he could call every play before it happened. IB said if you can call every play before it happens, it sounds like you’re in the wrong profession. Pretty funny......only real thing of note was IB saying architects are already working on plans for south end zone being bowled in. 5-7 years out. Said a new M-Club would be incorporated into the design but current one would have to come down as part of the Reno/addition.

Wow. That is big news. I just hope this won't add much to capacity. Attendance has peaked and is declining nationwide, and that trend isn't going to turn around anytime soon. We already have to deeply discount tickets to most games and still not sell out. I suspect what they're looking at is a new M-Club and some new premium seating/boxes, with few new regular seats. Which could make an already awesome stadium even better.

Agree, no reason to add sheer seating capacity.

Agree. 60K is the perfect size for us. It would be great to bowl in our stadium and add nice chairback seats through the lower bowl.
