How was the experience? I'm still looking around for tickets and I'm a little wary of sitting up there.

I was up in the 400's for the Cotton Bowl. I will admit to finding myself watching the big screen more often than not to keep track of the game. Its not like you couldn't see the field, but the screen is so big, your attention is naturally drawn to it.

For me, though, just being there and being able to witness an Aggie whipping was worth the price of admission. The most annoying thing about the game was not being so high up or watching the big screen, but the ever-present moaning and cultish-chanting coming from some of the Aggie fans that found their way over to the LSU side. I don't think we'll have that with Oregon...

I got two tickets in the LSU allocation in the 400 level, so I'll be up there again!

If you sit in 400's, you will watch the screen. Bottom line!

I've been to several games in the new cowboy stadium, what's funny is even in the lower bowl, if you look around everyone is looking at the big tv

Section 138, not exactly mid field, but it'll do.

I'm sitting 3rd row in the 400 section right on the 50 yd. line. It was between that and a lower bowl corner seat. I think being on the 50 right in front of the big screen is a better choice than in the corner.

If you sit up there you will stare at the screen the whole time no matter how hard you try. Simply a better view.

I was the 300's I guess, the last club level before the suites above us. And we were about as far up as you can get if you want to just watch the game without the screen, even though we all gandered at the screen off and on.

It's definitely way up there, but totally worth being in the stadium. I was so high up for the cotton bowl the screen almost got in the way of the field but since it was a sellout the atmosphere was still great up there

i guess, im the exception to the rule here...i sat in the 400's for the Cotton and I watched the field.
Not terrible, but obviously there are better seats in the building.

I was okay with my view.
