Sign me up. I have only sat up there once; 2008 Bama funeral game.
Never again.
The train tracks really pose an expansion problem for that side of the stadium. If they were redirected along with the adjacent road that would open more space to add a parking deck with bridge to the stadium, tailgating park and some East end facade enhancement. Perhaps a fountain honoring former players and coaches.
I guess the Dawgs need the assistance of a good Aggie.
Oxymoron
Touché
The only good Aggie is a reformed Aggie.
Or Williams Bryce stadium in Columbia. Ugliest by far. Looks like an upside down, dead spider.
Williams Bryce itself is ok if a bit sterile looking to my eyes, but the location is pretty terrible. As others point out, Sanford's location presents challenges, but it adds so much to the game day experience. The trade offs in the location balance out to be very positive.
It takes FOREVER to exit Williams Bryce, I'll likely never go there again. One thing I really like about Sanford is that it takes so little time to get out. Not so fond of the Jacksonville stadium for the same reason. Traffic management at both WB and Jax is atrocious. I finished in 1977; we watched from the tracks with B&B (beer and binoculars). Now my seats are in section 222, so I have a similar, albeit closer, vantage.
You weren’t supposed to watch with B&B when you were at UGA….you were only 14 yrs old
We used to try to park 2 strrets east of Williams Brice. We'd head back north running parallel to the main route,then take a left and head west to the interstate. Then again we always came from either Greenville or Asheville NC where we lived at those times. So we needed to access I-25, not I-20.
How about building to and past the tracks and using the train to bring fans to & from the stadium/game? Grand Sanford Station
I like it. We could call it the G-Train!
Make it a trolly line.
With the stadium terminus being the G-Spot.
