FIU Stadium Capacity??

[AndytheBull]

So I've been looking at different stuff about FIU's new stadium, and how many seats is it supposed to hold for our game? I read on their Fact Sheet for it that after the first phase of construction it will have 18,000 seats, including 1,400 club seats. So, I'm assuming thats all there is going to be there for our game. Also, says eventually they will expand to 45,000 seats.  Thats going to be a hot ticket w/ our fans , even hotter if we're coming off of a victory against Kansas.

Here is the FIU construction website, they have a countdown til our game w/ them when you open any of the links:

It will be like FAU last year... USF might have more fans than FIU.

Hopefully their newly renovated stadium will be nicer than Lockhart Stadium - what a dump.

It's their first game at the stadium....if there's only 18K it will be a tough ticket.  For the first one, we may only get an allocation of 1000 or less.  Interesting to see what happens.

Do they at least have a tv screen in the stadium?

tickets could be at a premium.  finally the priority points might come into play.  for this game or the UCF game at least.

18,000....whoa

Lockhart holds 20,450 and that was pretty small!

Golden Knaughts and the Golden Panthers...

Thank GOD for Leavitt and Ray Jay!
