Less capacity on top of that. Any inside information on that bad decision?

Sell more season tickets.

Justifying expansion by demonstrating demand without causing permanent empty seats.

I have inside information but I'm not giving it to you because you're a terrible poster. I also don't have any inside info.

I love you

People don't like to be crammed into a fenced pasture like a P.O.W. camp.

Why block him? He's an endless font of hilarious posts.

Great posts guys, would do again.

The bleachers killed the sight lines in Section 211. Can't see the about the last 30 feet of the left field fence.

Well, you see, OP…. Athletics charges money to people who want to sit there and watch a baseball game. Crazy, I know, but I'm pretty sure that's the point.

I could be wrong though. Maybe they're letting folks sit there for free…

The only thing I don't like is that it interferes with sight lines. People sitting on third base side can't see any balls hit to that corner. My hope is the renovation at least takes that into consideration.

I realize that the bleachers are likely a temporary fix until the stadium can be renovated. But, in the meantime, our ballpark looks like a hodge lodge of varying elements that are not designed to be integrated.

In my opinion, the berms look much better than the temporary bleachers.

All that to say, on television, when the camera pans down third, or at the empty parking lot past the left field fence, or to the section 12 bleachers, it looks bad.

For all the hate on the berms, that is one of the primary reasons that they went with berms--empty berms look better on TV than empty bleachers. Guess it's a matter of priorities.

Yes, and no. The addition down the line will not be up high, so it will provide less of an obstruction, but it will jut out more than the berm currently does, and will block your view of the corner.
