Did you even read past the first sentence?
The post was in response to CC addressing the corporate fan versus the guys and gals down in the seats.
the Corp fan vs fan is BS
If it were raining, stadium would probably be more empty. The temperature needs to be between 65-70 degrees with a nice breeze if it is sunny. If it is not sunny, temp needs to be 60-65.
If not, then stadium will be empty. Cause silicon fans be soft these days. Only the white guys stay and support their team in all conditions.
There are 204 users in the forums
What is up with our empty stadium??

What makes a good fan experience? I've been to Levi once so I can't say a lot but I've been to the Cardinals stadium quite a bit and other than a dome its not any better. In fact when the dome is open the sun shines right In your eyes. Did that once never again.

You don't need massive amounts to enjoy some luxury at levis , thats the BS part
I am not arguing you need money to enjoy your time at Levis. I think you and I are on the same side here
CC made the comment the 49ers (read Levi's) caters more toward the corporate type. I do not know, nor do I care, whether that is true. My only point was that if it were true they were catering to the corporate entities, it was because the bottom line dictated they do so. They being the bean counters. And, from a business perspective, that is what they should / must do.

This is subjective. There are certainly objective aspects, like, say, being able to see the game from your designated spot. But, overall, it's too hard to quantify.
For instance, I don't like the heat, I am an east coast guy. But, I know when I go to a game, if it is going to be hot, I prepare for it. It is hardly an issue. And, I always check the weather forecast before going to a game. If you don't and are caught out by the weather it's your own damn fault

Agreed I come prepared for weather or whatever it may be. As long as I have a good seat which I make sure of I'm fine. I'm there to watch a game. Think we have to many whiners. Sure the falcons and Vikings domes look great but they are domes too. What outdoor stadium is that much better than Levi?

Of course. Which is why it's interesting to me when people think the world doesn't work this way. I will never be one of the super rich, but I damn sure enjoy every minute sitting down in the catacombs with my kinda people

I went to a few games at Candlestick. Levi's is a nice f**king stadium. It doesn't look as cool as the dome stadiums for sure,but you don't have to miss a quarter of football to go to the bathroom, and that's pretty nice. I would think that another large contributing factor to Levi's, maybe, not having as many whistles and bells, is land and construction costs the the Bay Area are insanely more expensive then most other places.

All I know is that I been to every game since Levi's opened and I think it's beautiful. Once we have a defining moment in there all the b***hing will stop
