I know this is the Rant and people like to bitch but there seriously just elevators to get up tho the South Upper as i've seen people say? That can't be compliant to Fire Code.

Yea, there's no way an elevator is the only way to get up or down.

So wait, no one is using the set of ramps that you used to be able to use to get to the East Upper? I assumed the SEZ Upper was at least using it. Getting down from the East Upper last night was bad and we left when the place was empty. The escalator broke so the only option was the stairs. We watched a few elderly couples struggle to get down. It was ridiculous. The bigger games will be a nightmare up there.

you can use ramp to east upper as in past, but the staff were not all aware last night and made it a nightmare.
after talking with multiple staff - need to go in gates 22-28 then go right to ramp. Signage and staff have just not been adequately updated

As a building official, there is no way there isn't a secondary means of egress. Its not just about fire, whoever mentioned not seeing concrete burn. There are many reasons to have to quickly and safely have the occupants exit. Weather, terrorism...
