At least they are all Saints fans. Well, mostly.

thats crazy. the last thing I need is "amenities". all I need is my team, something that functions as grass, a football, a place to go the bathroom, and my seat.

if they want to "upgrade," I could use some extra butt-room.

so glad to be in the TERRACE!

After many years of only seeing the Saint's on TV, this will be my 3rd year straight to come down to the Dome for a live game. Its a 500 mile drive for me and its hella expensive, so I can really only do one game a year. But it'll be neat to see the improvements and Champion Square. And I for one love walking up Poydras street and into the massive crowd of Saint's fans on that side. It just pumps me up. The aura is incredible.

Sorry the manufacturer called and said they don't make seats that wide.

I think the extra "butt-room" was part of the upgrade. They put in wider seats with cup holders. I wouldn't mind that but I wouldn't want to pay an extra $120 a game for it. My behind fits my current seat just fine.

Wait, I thought all you TERRACE folks stood up all the time, at least that's what you tell us Plaza folks when we don't stand all the time. What do you need extra butt room for?
