When They Add the Suites and Club Seats to the East Side

Wouldn't a water misting system work? Could easily put a line of them above the lower east side bowl. Not sure how they could do it above the upper east side.

If TCU is worried about how the east side looks on tv when the sun is cooking, they should consider moving the TV cameras to the east side and have the more impressive west side be in the camera's view when they add an east side club/suites.

The shadier west side was packed for the entire game. Moving the tv crew and cameras to the other side would be an easy and plausible fix.

Then you'd see all the empty misused space in the west side lower bowl.

Not so much what it looks like on TV, it is what it looks like to the players and coaches. I have seen players and recruits venting on twitter

Need the Mr. Burns sun blocker.

No you would see the other teams fans sitting behind our players, like they have since the remod was done.

Hate the idea of club seats. No one sits in them. If you want a "club environment" go to a golf course. Old school stadiums like Michigan, USC, UGA, UCLA, and many others hide their club in the TOP 20 rows of the home sideline.

They still have the club and boxes for people who want that experience, but it doesn't ruin the atmosphere for the other fans or players.

Did you look at the club seats yesterday? My guess is they were well over 80% occupied for much of the game

They shade on that side early helped a lot but it seeemed like one of the best showings the club seats have had in a long time due to some effort to get people into their seats

Bizarre observation. It was easily 15-20 degrees cooler in Fayetteville.

It was still pretty hot - and I bet in the 500s where a lot of our fans it was worse

Not as bad as yesterday but there was zero wind in Fayetteville and their stadium is kind of down the side of a hill so it gets hot easy

If the seats aren't in full sun for a 2:30 game, where will the visitors' seats be? Particularly when SMUg visits.

We had 5 SMU Tri Delts trying to find shade on the west side. I kept reminding them where their seats were each time they were moved out by the ticket holders. They finally left in a huff. They were skinny and pale. They need some time in the sun....
