People make fun of sam boyd stadium, but every game I have seen there I have
been ultra comfortable. The bleachers have ample leg room.
I was packed like a sardine in the big house, though. I thought that was worse than LES.

Attended Stadium of Fire- was reminded LES has a potentially fatal seating flaw.

This is my biggest complaint. The leg room at LES is small. I'm only 5' 11" and I feel cramped.

Part of the problem with leg room is people leaning back in their seats, though.

I think people lean back in part because of no room for their knees in front.

Agreed. The legacy seats on the east side feel like they have plenty of legroom.

Never mind it sounds like they did reconfigure the slope of the stands.

The problem with Sam Boyd is the location and the huge dirt parking lot.

I am 5’10”, for me the width is a bigger problem. Wide bodied neighbors.

I would be happy to just have two seats for myself if it would work. It doesn't.

It's weird. LDS are by and large tall people - lots of Danish and Norwegian viking stock. Then you have these

I'd rather have 40k real seats and some leg room than 65k terrible bench seats.
