Yes, and looked massive.

YES! I was sitting in the new South End Zone and it felt so high up, but the view was perfect. Yet, there were still like 2 or 3 sections ABOVE me. It's insane.

And the new SEZ video boards are freaking huge in person.

ETA: Check out the pics in my thread: LINK

Yeahh... there was a lag on the mic so everything was flamming. Sounded bad. I like the idea of it, though. Just needs to be adjusted.

As far as looks, man it looked and felt like a just a big time Pro stadium, very elite and very nice. I will say that those on the top deck of the expansion have their own bathrooms and concessions on the Legos very cool and I think I'll try to snag some seats up there.

Screens were awesome but the sound the whole game was jacked, they need to sync it better. Really liked the fireworks when the team came out.

Was weird seeing EZ closed off, but looked really impressive.
Overall experience:
- much more high tech in a good way.
- cell reception was still poo,
- sound system to me was pretty cool.
- student section seems hell-bent to find a way to insert "suck" into any GBTL song - stupid.

I was asking if they were mic'd. It was terrible. Bad wasnt on their game today, I was upset. I love TGBFTL.


I found the SEZ Expansion fit well. Going up the ramp my first glance kind of knocked me back! It was awesome to finally see it. Even though it was my first time seeing it, I felt like it has been there for a while!

I sit in the student section and only heard it one time. It was a very poor attempt of a few students to insert it. It didn't work and doubt anybody heard it unless they were nearby

I also thought that the band was not good tonight. The band normally brings excitement to the atmosphere. Not tonight.

Any increase in noise level? Obviously considering the opponent

New boards are awesome. Only thing I'll say is they need to do something about the stats and score. I could see it on the smaller boards but a lot of people couldn't. It would be better if the at least one of the bigger screens had numbers too.

I don't think it was their fault. The mic's just killed the sound. It made most songs sound like pure crap.

The new expansion is on point! The designers did a great job... It has a very pro type look to it! It definitely adds a notch in the belt of TS as one of the best venues on Earth. It also improved the sound in my opinion... I sit in the EU's and it sounded better. Can't wait for the Bama game, TS is gonna be rockin!!!

I'm in the East Upper too and it's going to be a nightmare for big games. They completely shut off access to the ramps. The only 2 options are the single escalator or the stairs. Oh, and the escalator broke after the game.

A glitch or two with scoreboard but it is truly awesome.

Sound system overall sounds like shite. Borne' is unintelligible in the south EZ. Still has a shite ton of bass, if you like that. But the play by play is useless.
