Put tarps over the seats in the 300 section like the seattle sounders do. We need to do something drastic to improve the atmosphere.. Scattering fans all over a 65k stadium isnt doing it. If you aren't going to build an OCS at least TRY to help us get a better game-day atmosphere with some semblance of a home field advantage.

I think that the third level is open because of season ticket sales. I'm not sure how many people the lower bowl holds, but with 44K seats sold, they had to be close to capacity. Several of those season tickets come from the 3rd level.

The actual attendance on Thursday was 29K, but 44K seats were sold.

ATTENDANCE: 44,219

how many of those were not sold and just given away? If only 29k were there... how many of them were in the upper deck? Bring those people down and make the lower bowls a better atmosphere.

we need to completely close the upper bowl and say the games are sold out, create some buzz.... (unless its an FSU like game)

I agree, they should restructure the the donation levels in the lower bowl, and move all season tickets out of the upper deck. They could have sold the upper deck for the FSU tickets for $75/$100 a ticket, and closed it for all the other games.

Too logical to occur.
