There's gotta be a way to get speakers in other areas - top of the bleachers?

It seems like every other stadium I've been to has had speakers all around the stadium. Most of the bigger stadiums have overlapping levels so the speakers hang off the overlapped part. LES can't do that, but I imagine they could find somewhere along the sidelines (top of the stadium, or off the field) to make it work.

I have only one complaint about game atmosphere in Provo:

Neighbors won't allow it

This. Neighborhood north and east of the stadium doesn't like fun.

9/30/14 1:40pm

but the pa guy is louder than the music... so is the band

9/30/14 1:41pm

It's six times per year. Why do the neighbors get to dictate this?

The speakers are way too loud, if you're sitting in the NEZ.

I wonder why they didn't put speakers on SEZ sign?

Because you'd run into weird sound delays as the waves travel north and south

Top of the press box makes the most sense

Everything was fine before the new scoreboards went up.

Nah, it was bad back then too.

9/30/14 2:14pm

I never had a problem hearing in the south before that.

9/30/14 2:22pm

Weird. I can only tell what song's playing about half the time

9/30/14 1:42pm

It's because they only have speakers in the NEZ sign. It's plenty loud when

It wasn't that bad with the old scoreboard. But, this one only has the speakers

One complaint?

9/30/14 2:20pm

One fixable complaint. Nothing we can do about a couple of stupid fans.

9/30/14 2:24pm

Is it different now? I sat in the north end zone and nobody stood up during the

It's more than a couple stupid fans. More like the majority...

The "band" playing Popcorn as a part of its repertoire really consists

9/30/14 2:36pm

Yeah. Mostly just them playing between virtually every play bothers me a tad.

9/30/14 2:39pm

To be fair, the music that would get you excited is likely the kind of music

ByuMba90

9/30/14 2:42pm

Haha, you blue hairs.

9/30/14 2:43pm

That's it, I'm sending an email telling the band to start playing more.....

ByuMba90

9/30/14 2:44pm

As long as they play real music too, I'm okay with that

BTW, I was watching the Wisc game this past week, and in the MIDDLE of

I'm really not a fan of the band
