[QUOTE="GTRX7, post: 342645, member: 1045"] To be fair, Atlanta United did completely sell out the only game in Bobby Dodd where the upper north wasn't closed for construction. They also put over 70k in Mercedes Benz last Saturday. Now that it is said and done, I think we can all agree that situation was great for both Atlanta United and Georgia Tech. While I heard a lot of fan complaints about Bobby Dodd after the first Atlanta United game, by the end, I think most fans absolutely loved being there and were actually worried that Mercedes was going to be a downgrade! That created a whole lot of good will for Bobby Dodd that didn't exist before. I think Tech does an okay job filling the stadium for a small school, and especially one with a spread out alumni base. That said, I agree with the folks who think we simply over expanded with the upper north. Bobby Dodd should probably be 50k instead of 55k. There is something to be said for a more full stadium on a regular basis and even hard to come by demand for big games. In the future, I could see us increasing the amount of "luxury" seating and decreasing the overall capacity. Given the trend in stadiums these days, I think that would be a good thing. Now we just need a donor to chip in the 20 (50?) million. lol. [/QUOTE]
