New MWC Possibility:

[Sports Opinion]

That’s what I think UTEP needs to do to the Sun Bowl as well. I’d rather have 44-45k individual seats, instead of 50k+ benches. We’re not selling out, so no big deal.

Orange seats at the Sunbowl would look nice

Honestly, I think putting in better seats (a lot are broken) and reducing the capacity, is the way to go.

Why reduced the capacity ? I do agree the DHC is completely outdated, two years ago I went to a concert at Ball Arena in Denver CO and WOW, I mean WOW that is a state of the art complex. There is just no comparison between DHC and Ball Arena in anyway possible. It’s like comparing Kiki Romero gimnasio in Juarez with DHC.

I was just referring to seats that are a bit larger, customer friendly with cup holders. It might take out a seat per row, nothing crazy.

Yep there is too much money to be made. That is why there will never be college playoff games being played in the Sun Bowl. Do you think the college football mafia is going to make more money with Clemson vs. Texas in a 47k Sun Bowl stadium than DK Royal Stadium that seats over 100k and has more than 100 luxury suites? It would be cool to have playoff games here but it just ain’t going to happen.

People start complaining about paying more than $20 for a ticket. My pair was significantly more than that. I heard of people spending four figures on a single ticket.

Its all Supply and Demand. Gotta have a Product worth more than $20 a Ticket.

Floor is General Admission.

Once again stupid. Since those are the most expensive seats for sale.

Floor wasn't the most expensive "seat".

Im on ticketmaster and I can seat anywhere i wants for $350 and under.

Those are resale prices. Floor is general admission standing room. Some people want a seat. I paid a lot more than $350 (face value) for a lower level seat.

So you can sit on the bench??

I'm not sure what you are trying to infer.

With the addition of N. Illinois can we officially say MWC will be the 3rd best G6 league. I think the AAC is barely better than the new MWC by the way. Utep and Walden will win at least 6 games next year and if he stays will be very good in year 3. Those who scoff m, because of Uteps history are well warranted. However we’ve never had recruiting to the level we’ve seen with Walden and if it continues we will see the difference in talent by year 3!

1. PAC Whatever
2. AAC
3. MWC
4. Sun Belt
5. MAC
6. CUSA

So if we finished at or near the bottom in the worst G6 league, there’s people that think we won’t in the 3rd best?

Man it was stupid of me missing Alice Cooper live. I saw snippets of his SB appearance and the man was in fine form like he was in the 70's to mid 80's. Decades of sobriety, religion, golf and humility have done him wonders.

Coldplay is a once in a lifetime event. UTEP has been playing 5 or 6 home games a year for 70 years and will for another 70.
