Where was the RIOT?

[TNPanther]

I was in 555 and I'm pretty sure I almost died. I was already hot from standing around in the sun at the Riot tailgate. I made the mistake of wearing a black undershirt underneath my Luke jersey and I sat there drunk and sweating my ass off. This was no doubt the hottest game I've ever been to.

When I got back to the car I stripped down to nothing but my boxers for the ride home.

I didn't really notice the heat. I did notice the length of the 1st Qtr though. Crazy. The upperdeck was just as empty on the visitors side.

Ticket prices are simply too high. With the attendance at training camp and Fanfest, you'd expect that we could fill the stadium twice over. Ticket prices are just unreasonable. $40 seats for the nosebleeds is absurd. I had some friends go who spent $150 on tickets. Please... Jerry, there has to be a way to get butts in these seats.

We held it down in 531, but the stadium was only at about 50% capacity in the 2nd half, from the looks of it.  Like Jeremy said, it was Spartanburg hot out there.  fuging miserable.  Spent a lot of time making sure my son stayed cool and hydrated.  Had to buy several gatorades to drink, and $4 waters(FML) to pour over his head/down his back.

I pointed that out in the game day thread yesterday. I was very disappointed by the number of empty seats.

[cookinwithgas]

the concourses were pretty full whenever I had to head in, the heat and sun were an issue no doubt.

[Hammerin'Cameron34]

Yeah as somebody else pointed out it was only 83 degrees, that is a cool day at training camp in Spartanburg, was it just the humidity was so high plus the little cloud cover?

Got to love the fans who watch on tv and complain about the crowd. Buy a ticket and be part of the solution.

The heat was brutal yesterday, the clouds brought limited relief. After we went up 24-10, I would say atleast 40% of the fans left, mainly due to the heat.

That was the hottest game i've ever been to. Tons of people were chilling in the tunnels and I can't really blame them.

We sit lower bowl, shady side ....... which was not shady at all this time. It was hotter than Hades with no breeze. Carried in the max allowed 2 bottles of water each but couldn't finish the last 2 because by the 4th quarter that water was as hot as if it was in a pot on the stove. Yes, club seats on the sunny side were practically empty but I can tell you that all those people were behind the glass in A/C watching the game; we could see them. And I don't blame them at all. And with all if this, hardly anyone in my section left early & no one stopped cheering loudly.

[L-TownCat]

I was in the shade the whole time and was still hot as blazes.

If you know me, this will tell ya what you need to know.

I switched to liquor because the beer just couldn't keep up with the sweat.

 

PS: I dont do liquor, ever.

Where are your seats?

I'm in 228 which is usually in the shade until the 2nd half and we only had shade for maybe the 1st drive.
