They need to redo the seating and put in chairs everywhere except maybe in the student section. Resume the capacity some.

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.

PJMort

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.

When they remodeled the marriott center they were able to change the leg room.

People are larger now than they were when LES and the Big House were built.

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

Much better now. Not sure if you have been to a game recently?

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.

They completed $400 million stadium renovation in 2017 and put in bigger benches

Yes ND fans complain about the seats. Yes, ND made changes.

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.
