Fell over backwards like a drunken freshman.

I remember the first time I saw the stadium. From the distance it looked like an aircraft carrier.

What capacity will the stadium be at for next season?

From what I’ve heard, the lower bowl on the west side will be used for next season while the upper half is under construction. Then in 2026, the lower bowl will be redone. Regardless, it’s going to be weird seeing that west side for the next two seasons, but the end product probably is going to make Beaver Stadium much more aesthetically pleasing and also retain more noise.

While it’s not a true analogue, Google the Liberty Bowl and you’ll get an idea of what’s going to happen, because that stadium is having one of their sidelines totally redone, and Memphis basically played this season with that side of the stadium gone.

IIRC they let people keep season tickets in the West side in 2024 but didn’t allow any new sales in that area. I guess to allow for flexibility with distribution of seats on the West side for 2025

Any renderings on what the new press box will look like?

I heard "temporary bleachers" for 2025, and no reduction. But I also heard from someone in WH that they think they won't have their tickets available in one of the upcoming seasons (2025?). It's all supposed to be normal for 2027, but we shall see, since the plans are more closely guarded than a Franklin injury report.
