A full lower bowl looks better on TV and adds atmosphere, but it doesn't make much sense to pack 10,000 fans into the endzones while premium sideline seats on the upper deck are empty. I realize some people prefer to watch from the endzones but many would choose the upper deck sideline or corner if they weren't much more expensive.SammyGreene wrote:While I would like to see the upper bowl priced differently I rather have the lower bowl completely full on a regular basis than 17,000 down low and 13,000 up top as it kills the atmosphere.
If fans are willing to attend the game, why stick them with bad seats when good seats sit empty? I find the games much more enjoyable from the 10 yd. line than the endzone.
The problem is cutting the price of the upper-deck tickets could make the premium lower bowl seats seem over-priced...and those season-ticket holders are the lifeblood of the franchise. The marketing dept. must walk a fine line there.
