[QUOTE="bleedsorangenblue, post: 1195419, member: 10413"] I think this is a good point and a lot of the flaws that people are complaining about are things being addressed in this last phase. The restroom situation will be better when all are completed and the lack of a dedicated entrance and exit doors will become less salient. The concession stands will be better integrated into the building. There will be less grey concrete visible and the overall fit and finish will be complete. Some of the other issues seem to be related to change in general. I think people will get used to not being able to walk the perimeter any more and it is not that big of a deal. The new seats are really not as bad as some make them out to be. I am sure there are some other things that fit in to this category as well. One question I had regarding restrooms is something that some here will know. Do the premium seats with lounge/club areas have their own restrooms? I am assuming that they do and that this has helped the restroom situation tremendously. I was at the Ohio State game and used the concourse restroom about 5 min. before the end of the first half. I had no line and was in and out quickly. It was a long way from my seat so having a couple more will be much better. I can see how if some waited til halftime that the current restroom situation would seem inadequate. [/QUOTE]
