Renovations at Rentschler Field

74 years old with a pacemaker, didn't go thru any stinking metal detectors at the Rent when I went to the Buffalo game.

How's that work? Do tell them I have a pacemaker. I can't go through that?

 

[AzHusky]

Correct. I have never had a problem with just telling them. But if necessary I have a medical card that indicates that I have a pacemaker.

Last thing you wanna do is flummox that thing

Exactly what has my seat donation money been used for the past 21 years ? I thought it was originally for stadium payments . Does anyone know ?

Your seat donation does not go toward paying for The Rent, either capital improvements or operating costs. The state of CT pays for that. Your seat donation goes directly toward the support of the FB program, and my guess toward the operational costs. Your season tix includes a modest fee for facilities at UConn. There’s a “facilities fee” on all UConn sports tixs.

Those new metal detectors have been there the last 2 weeks.

If they really want to upgrade the fan experience, invest in really good wife(I did type wifi), a Rentschler Field app that shows all different angles of plays and seat delivery for food and beverages.

sure, but i think the auto-correct is on to something... LOL

My good wife has approved of my going to 11 of the 12 regular season games this year. Hard to top that!

So far the Field has 2 new logistics facilities for Lowes and Wayfair and an engineering facility on the way. It will be a huge industrial complex with a football stadium. A very odd end result.

Except Wayfair isn't moving in. They have been trying to sublet their warehouse space since their change of plans.

I suppose they are keeping some land for Rentschler Field parking. That could affect the tailgating situation which is one of the plusses of the location if the long-term plan is to expand stadium capacity. Need to plan for all of the RV's rolling into town!
