I echo the sentiments, uconnell. The sarcasm on this site can be quite entertaining, but sometimes it comes across a tad insensitive. It's great that you had a nice visit. The chair backs are likely what it has been for quite some time. I think the scoreboards are likely the same as well. They're nice but, small and the resolution IMO was outdated the moment they put them in.

As for the new jumbotron, I don't recall any such thing the last time I attended a game at Gampel and I went to a few last season. Maybe I have a case of Clemens' misremembering syndrome. Are you saying, uconnell, that there is some sort of center court hanging jumbotron at Gampel? I can't imagine they could put one in there without it being a possible obstruction for sports like volleyball, but maybe I'm underestimating the height.

I think he's referring to the video boards at the ends of Gampel.

No, I didn't know what to call the video boards and all I could think of was the jumbo torn at the football games.
