    Ticket Renewals are in the Mail

I do love the idea of seats above the student section. I only make one game a year at most, but I do love that experience. It's an annual treat for me.
    I might have posted this earlier in the thread, but at one of the meetings they're hosting to go over the plans it was said that 49% of the seats will see an increase in price after the reseating and 47% will see a decrease. I might have that backwards. Regardless, those were the two percentages presented. My seats, assuming I am able to keep them, go down in price.
    Golf is a relatively simple game, played by reasonably intelligent people, stupidly.

    The premium seat cost stayed the same. The season ticket price did go down, but likely because we either have fewer home games or different pricing per game than last year.

    Can someone help me put all this in perspective? How much does a decent lower bowl season ticket cost? How about the upper bowl? How much is this changing? I'm not talking Jack Nicholson/Spike Lee seats, just ballpark average. I pay through the nose to get decent tix through Stubhub each year, but it's only one game so I'm going to pony up for good seats. I wouldn't pay that for every home game without a Lottery windfall.

    Thanks, pretty nice seats there I'd bet. I made a point of checking it out last year and was impressed with the view from the upper bowl. I'm glad I only get screwed annually by Stubhub. Still curious about cost in other areas.

    Two upgrades needed:

    1) Bathroom planning was piss poor. Not enough urinals, a lot of dead space on walls that could house additional urinals.
    2) Cup holders on seat back. Been to too many games and had drinks kicked over near me, on coat, etc.

    Every season the Cintas has been open, they give a survey at the end of the season asking for feedback. Each and every season, my pops (who currently owns our seats) or I (when I had 2 of my own) would tell them they need more urinals in the mens bathroom. The arrangement in the one near section 104 is ridiculous. It's even more ridiculous that people line up single file...for EVERY place to piss in the bathroom. It isn't a line for each urinal or stall (like most places) people stop the line when they enter the "pissing room" of the bathroom, and wait for the next urinal or stall to come open. They could easily double the number of urnials in that bathroom, and virtually eliminate the lines that build up. It is a major pet peeve, inexpensive to fix, yet the plea falls on deaf ears.
