What UW can do to fix the game day experience at Husky Stadium

Get rid of any sing along trash. Do the spelling of HUSKIES after every score. We all know how to do it and it's already ours. Take the seats in the corners of the upper deck that never sell and give them away to kids in under privileged areas of Seattle/Tacoma. Grass roots your fan base. This isn't hard.

Even in 2016 the crowd was late to arrive and 15k people were missing after halftime until mid-3rd quarter.LawDawg1 said:TLDR
Fucking win.
The stadium does not have a college gameday feel. Too sterile and corporate. Turn off the shitty top-40 music between possessions and let the band play and that solves half of it, IMO. -
No, they really do matter. UW is doing a shit job off of the field too, and it should be fixed. Great, winning programs should be great across the board. Let’s fucking fix everything broken!fivehundredmileDAWG said:
Night games are not going away.... so you may as well just give up your tix.Purple_Pills said:
Not for me. I could watch them win at home on TV. They still need to dramatically improve the game day experience at Husky Stadium. They are real close to losing me as a season ticket holder.fivehundredmileDAWG said:Win
That solves over 2/3 of the problems
There are many other things that could improve... but that is the only one that truly matters.
Your list of demands is a bit comical at this point...
No disrespect intended, but it is a bit funny. Without wins none of the other 'fan experience' extras matter.

Win. Next question.

Lower the price. Raise it once the stadium is full every game and there’s a waiting list for season tickets again. Idiots.

2016-2018 Say hi in terms of winning and stands will be full
Must drop cost of season tickets. You can go onto 2ndary market and get same better tickets for a quarter of the cost.
They did get traction with 50% off concessions up to hour b4 kick. Make it up to 30 minutes and add merchandise into equation. -
Reducing concessions is a good idea that I've been behind the entire time ... but needs to be closer to kickoff than an hour ... 30 minutes makes sense
They need to streamline the process for getting into the stadium ... the vax situation makes the situation ugly ... but ultimately they don't have enough entrances or enough ticket scanners to get people through. Add to it the number of technologically unsavvy people and it's a bottleneck. I can get into Kraken games in less than 2 minutes ... it took me well over 10 minutes last night.
Light rail and everything is great except it's ugly getting out of the full trains with everybody cattled in he same direction (another huge bottleneck) ... simply put the infrastructure doesn't really support the volume. Then you add to it the crush of people getting on after a game and it's just a disaster ... and that doesn't factor in the light rail breaking down after the game
Besides the in-game presentation, there needs to be a return to embracing tailgating ... the beauty of college football is that you get to spend the entire day with your friends and family. Make tailgating easier ... not more difficult or more expensive.
Yes, football is the golden goose ... but that doesn't mean we have to bleed every single dollar out of every single fan. Have some give and take. -
Not lose to Montana

Get rid of the fucking DJ, move the student section back hire a fucking winning coach

I would love to be a fly on the wall when Cohen meets with these national “gameday experience consultation” firms and they tell her what sells in today’s PAC-12.
