[QUOTE="gtcrew, post: 674220, member: 761"] There is space, and thats the kind of stuff that all the baseball teams figured out makes subpremium seating premium. #1. We dont have enough boxes. So #1 to me would be to convert the club seats lounge back to boxes. Its obvious the majority of club seaters are just interested in watching in the lounge, they dont hardly need or use the seats. If you are worried about the few that do care about the seat location, keep some of it as a lounge, and offer lounge packages but put the seats just above it in the upper east. Sell the chairback seats separately. If someone [I]really [/I]wants lounge access and a lower east seat, they can simply buy them both. #2. Convert the lower level of the Wardlaw to be the new club level with all the club amenities. Bonus is you might could even let them park in the building for the superpremium experience. Have table seating on the terrace. Redo the south endzone completely with a second tier of several rows of chairback seats for the club level fans. Maybe put TVs on those seats like the Braves have. Dont overcrowd the seats. Or make the seating 4 and 6 Person hightops with a tv like they have at the braves games. The top row of this tier would walk directly up onto the terrace. #3. Demolish the little stands at the top of the visitor stands and put a restaurant there with a rooftop terrace. To enhance the experience of those patrons, move the visitors to the upper north. It is beyond time to do that. Put a handful of chairbacks in the upper north center for season ticketholders like jj who prefer it up there but otherwise make it visitor. I know money is tight, but if you know construction you know these are not ridiculously expensive options and the payback probably is reasonable. #3 would be the easiest. I assume we would lease the land for the revenue stream while the restaurant would operate year round probably with a negotiated percentage of gameday profits to GT. #2 could be done in phases. Seating on the terrace would be dirt cheap to add. Then you add a lounge with designed phases as the demand increases. The south seats design could also be implemented a few sections at a time. #1 could be more complicated and you wouldnt want to do it until you had the wardlaw lounge concept proven. Still, the payback on boxes is high so anything that adds boxes should be considered. [/QUOTE]
