Let Business Lawyer Know , THE MISTAKE BY THE LANDING STRIP is an outdated, Bald Tire, needing repair, built in the wrong place to begin with. Today's Students will NEVER go, and Alumni like myself, have no interest in spending a day in crappy East Hartford. That's he attendance problem.
Well, I.m surprised it took that long for blaming the Rent for our attendance problems. First, you are in a bankrupt state despite what you see in the political commercials this week. This state isn’t about to build a new stadium with access roads to put it in Storrs.
Second, I have been in many stadiums around the country and the Rent is among the best from a fan stand point. Notre Dame [yes we won] seats are small and uncomfortable. It is impossible to sit in Penn State seats in the winter with coats on. The Rose bowl is impossible to sit in even in Bermudas unless you sit sidesaddle. Yankee Stadium site lines are terrible. The Phila. Eagles stadium in also not good as is Giants Stadium, not to mention the traffic.
Bottom line, the attendance problem is the quality of the team. In Big East days we had no problem filling the rent at night or whenever against teams like Syracuse, Pitt or West Virginia. . Surprisingly, the students showed up. In short, lets stop wishing the stadium was somewhere else and all our attendance problems would be solved if it were in Storrs.
