We were divided into two groups. I know PM members were part of the other group so they can chime in if they want.
The meeting I attended was about the Seating changes in the south endzone.
It was mentioned by all present the need to upgrade Sound, WiFi, Restrooms, And Concessions.
Slides were shown of recent Reno plans for Arkansas, Miss State, Rutgers, Iowas State, Ole Miss and a few others so we had a visual of what the possibilities were.
It was a consensus of the group that affordable seating such as what currently exists in the south end zone should remain.
If additional "club level" seating is added, it should be added above and or behind the existing seating.
One rendering (Miss State) looked pretty cool with an open courtyard/walkway connecting the East Side to the West side.
Questions were asked about Locker Rooms, Weight Room, Offices etc but were told that was a separate deal than the seating changes.
It was assumed by several that the weight room, locker rooms, offices etc would be constructed south of the existing stadium, but a part of the south endzone, if that makes sense. In other words, to add offices etc the stadium would be expanded south.
Iut was also brought up a need to upgrade electrical infrastructure so the diesel generator could be obsolete.
A southern access point to the south endzone was mentioned.
Parking was discussed as was Game day experience, more updated scoreboards, signage, etc.
Question was posed by the hosts asking our opinion of more corporate signage to help offset cost of seat Reno.
It was stated several times by many different people that affordable seating should remain.
It was also stated that if club level seats are added to the South EndZone, they should be a lower price point than what is offered on the new East side.
We were told they were compiling questions, comments, suggestions, etc and would be sending out a more broad based email survey in the future.
