The biggest issue with the Reed concourses are (or were, Im assuming its still the same) the concession lines where you just line up straight out into the walkway for some reason.

---

they have tried to put in a que line; but then they have moved the condiments and other stuff opposite of the line so you still have bottleneck.

it doesn't help that levy staff are slow since they pay so little and have so much turnover

I like that when they were trying out beer it's a whole different line. If you were trying to get food and a beer before the game it might take 30 minutes.

I wonder if they've ever considered bringing concessions in-house. We have so many events, I can't imagine there wouldn't be a decent economy of scale to make it feasible.

They sold that right to levy for wad of cash, why would they change that? Sharp has repeatedly said Levy is great.

Ok. Well, I don't know how long the contract is but when it's nearing completion, I hope they'll consider another option.

2014-2026, it was 12 year deal, so 5 more years of crap.

. . .Place is like a giant Faraday cage or something.

A Mylar bag with a conductive surface on the outside is an effective Faraday cage. . .and cheap.

Though primarily prevents electrostatic discharge on the electronics inside the bag.

if fake sports want money for facilities they should be less unwatchably boring and actually generate money

I'm all for the university spending money on construction.... I mean, students.

The real concession was the payment Levy made to get the contract. Above board and to the school but it was their consideration that makes it irrevocable.

I could do it for $124

So $100 and a chicken wrap???

Deal

Do NIL and play games behind the chicken like the old Maroon Madness days.

Soulja Boy sings national anthem or I'm not coming

Will they change the name from Reed Arena ???

Where next to Kyle do you plan this?

Underneath the Northeast corner, obviously.

We can't even fill Reed as is. Expanding it would be a waste of time and resources.

---

You're right. We should make it an non-air conditioned dump like Deware or one with inadequate and ancient facilities like G. Rollie. That's when we were great and the place rocked!!!

It will be interesting to see how the new t.u. basketball/concert facility. They are building a significantly smaller hoops capacity just in the time for Horns basketball to move from a premier hoops conference to the SEC. They had trouble selling it our for Kansas. It's a shame that a school with 50,000 students can't fill a 15,000 seat building and it would would look worse if we went back to to an arena the size of G. Rollie White.

Don't forget that the design at Reed is set up for graduation more than basketball. Maybe they can build a new barn for basketball and make Reed the home of Texas Aggie hockey.

So you want a club sport to use Reed Arena and complain that a school with 50k students can't get 15k to game??

That makes no sense when we get maybe 6k to a game beside Gonzaga and we have 60k +.

300,000 in Bryan College Station. Stop focusing on the students. The college community should fully support if they think they deserve the revenue from the school.

What are you talking about?

What did I point to? That's what I was talking about.

We have to find someway to get this community fired up about mediocre basketball!

Sure. TommyBrady posted the capital plan that includes the $125 million.

Anyone complaining about students not going to sporting events doesn't have a recent current student. And suggesting I don't understand what I'm talking about is in the category of go ahead and think what you wish. I'll keep posting on topics that interest me.
