I also like the colors. It makes it look bright and upbeat. At Nevada-Reno they have dark blue seats. It looks dark and dead in that arena when it is empty.

The only time they will consider changing the seats is if they expand. It's not going to happen for a while.

My opinion on the spectrum of poop colored seats differs from the majority here so I'll just leave it at that.

You should probably get looked at... That orange hue isn't healthy at all...

The seats are the reason for the name "Spectrum" right? Leave the spectrum magic alone

I've always thought they ought to just repaint the ones they already have. A nice Aggie Blue would be great! The hardest part would just be covering/taping down a dropcloth before they go to town on the spray painting. But maybe they can give out free season passes to anyone willing to help out?

I would leave the current seat colors the way they are, but I would reiterate my proposal from March:
Extend the seating up (and over the concourse) to the ceiling. Adding an additional row where possible would give another 310 seats. There are actually about 424 seats on the current top row, but the 310 accounts for the press box and the television camera and would preserve sight lines based on the pillars. There is probably enough room for 6-8 more rows. That means anywhere between 1860 to 2480 additional seats. Of course, they would probably have to be wider seats and there may be some other restrictions, so conservatively, we could add in the neighborhood of 1500 additional seats without major renovations.

Do we really want those fans in the wider seats sitting above the concourse?

Seat color doesn't matter. They should be full

Love the idea. I would however put the additional rows in bleachers to be able to maximize capacity. These bleacher seats would go for a lower cost providing a cheaper option for those who seem to think the tickets are too expensive.

The seats from what I hear would have to go up to hipster sized proportions. that would drop about 3,000 Seats. :)

Looks like the lowered the new scoreboard 5 feet so is hanging about 7 to 8 feet down from the ceiling. I can see the top ribbon easy on row 27
