...am I the only one that is not too fond of them? I think maroon would have been a better choice. I'm sure there is a reason they went with green. Thoughts? Comments?

Green is standard and likely cheapest. I think theyre terrible, but its really not a big deal if theyre full of people in maroon shirts.

Blame HKS.

Green is the traditional color for baseball seats in most parks (unless blue is a color for the team, then you'll often see blue instead).

I suspect that these seats are green all the way through, and not just painted green on the surface. That should make them more durable and not result in fading or discoloration. In order to get maroon seats of the same quality, it probably would have been prohibitively expensive.

twk, the color of those seats is dictated by little plastic balls of color, I don't think maroon is any more expensive than this green. (I'm finding out to the best of my ability though...)

I do think however that they've figured out how to keep this plastic batch from fading which is important long term.

I like the green. It's a traditional baseball seat color.

easier to see a ball against a green back ground.

maroon plastic seats turn into pink plastic seats in 10yrs. You want that?

I can't believe the amount of people that are *****in about little things. We will have one of the greatest baseball stadiums in the country, not to mention the atmosphere inside! Would you rather have this?........

Whoa, ha'as. I'm not complaining, just wondering why. I'm not griping about the color of my Corvette after switching from a Honda Civic.

Yeah, they probably would fade, but the faded green in stadiums looks just as bad as maroon that's not quite maroon. The Aggie Soccer Complex has maroon seats and I think the tennis center doesn't too. It didn't stop them there.

It is called baseball. That is why the seats are green. Look at any legit ballpark.

I think the green looks terrific. I have absolutely no idea why so many people seem freaked over this.

It's because everyone else has them and Aggies like to be different from everyone else. That's all.

True and true, but it just doesn't fit well with the other sporting venues on campus. I think it will still look great no matter what. Like I've been saying, I'm not complaining, I'm just wondering why and think maroon would have been a better choice.

This thread is proof that Aggies will ***** about anything.

So do the Rangers have red seats?
Do the Astros have black seats?

Both green, standard at a baseball park.

AG12, you are right...cuz when I'm sitting on them, I won't see them. Yes, i'll see the seat back in front of me...wait no I won't bc they don't have green seats in 203...

they could have done maroon and it would of looked great. Grenn is not bad and yes more of a traditional look but maroon would of been awesome!
Mississippi State has maroon and it looks awesome



and LSU managed to put in purple and yellow seats

Mississippi State has maroon and it looks awesome

But from this picture it looks like they are stuck with Field Turf. I rather have traditional green seats and real grass instead of maroon seats and fake grass.
GEA89
How long do you want to ignore this user?
They could have put in fake grass too, they didn't.

You can't change it
Your complaining falls on deaf ears
Childress has been talking of green seats for years

You want a say? Donate more money. Till then let it go.

Money and time... we had neither (only had money because of the Kruse brothers)

From the picture of LSU I don't get why we had to put a railing above the dugout and they didn't. Having been it does obstruct the view on the front row.
jkag89
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Need the rail to hang Ks.

are those green seats on the 3rd base side of the LSU field? Not the first few rows, but after that?

yeah...looks like Alex Box has yellow, purple and green seats?

i'm guessing the purple and gold are for season ticket big money spenders.

Childress wanted green, so green is what he got.
