It does. I was fearing the video board would block the view of the other side of the stadium Looks like it may for half the stadium...unless you're int he lower bowl. Not good.

My seats are upper bowl, 50 yard line, and I'm looking forward to the video board being right in the line-of-sight. It should be awesome.

I know they took a lot of care to make sure it was out of the range of even the highest possible punt, so that shouldn't be an issue.

That and I'm guessing there will be one or two angry punters before the year is over with.

Where are y'alls seats?

229 row 2. I am bummed I am on the visitors side, but I am so close to the field that I can deal with it.

I am going to drive by their later today.

That will probably get my mind into a more positive mode.

Are you flying in for all 8 games?

where are your seats by the way

I'm in 443, row 18. It's also visitor side, but that doesn't bother me. What I really wanted was 50 yard line, and I got it, so I'm happy.

I briefly considered club seats that were on the 10 yard line, about 15 rows from the field, but the $350 price tag per ticket per game was a little hard to swallow. I know I'm going to end up having to sell some tickets during the year, and I don't want to get stuck with a $350 ticket... I think they'd be a lot tougher to get your money back on.

If I make it to 4 games a year I'll be happy. I have two seats and my business partner has two seats so we have four seats together. I'll try to make it to some games with my family and he'll do the same, and we'll try to go to a few together probably. So between us, we should catch a majority of them.

I'm definitely flying out for the opener. I'm also going to go out for Thanksgiving and hopefully there will be a home game the weekend before T-Day and I'll catch that one as well. If there's a home game the weekend of the Red River Shootout (OU/TX), then I'll probably come out for that as well. After that, I'll just look for cheap flights and play it by ear. Hopefully there will be a playoff game or two to catch as well!
