- A few fans feel that the basketball arena should be
the primary target of renovation. The common response is that
revenue from the suites and additional features will fund other
projects at the U.
- The report in the Ann Arbor indicated there might
be a seat reduction of a few thousands seats, putting Michigan below
at least Penn State and probably Texas A&M as the leader in
capacity. AD Bill Martin and others have already made
statements confirming that this is a concern and will be addressed.
(Translation: They'll figure it out a way to not reduce the size of
the capacity.)
- They would like to add an additional inch to each
of the seats. The alternative plan is to sell lower-calorie
snacks at concessions to slim everyone down - by an inch or so.
- Likewise, Michigan would like to increase the size
of the aisles and entry ways.
- Up to 79 luxury suites will be added.
- They will not allow any advertising inside the
stadium. Pepsi will still dominate the outside of the old ball
park.
- More bathrooms and concessions will be added.
My take: bathrooms are a problem right now but I've never had an
issue getting a quick drink during the game. The entire
stadium is lined with concessions!?
