Nice stadium, big video boards
The concession stand line was a joke. Those sisters sure took their time.
Y'all see the line for the train after the game? Lol sucks for those people.

Stadium was awesome, atmosphere was amazing. Never waited once for a drink. Even snuck my whiskey in without a problem.
Not sure what train you were at, we walked right up and got on. All around great experience, wouldn't hesitate to do it again

No food/drink lines in the directors club 
Stadium is nice
Stayed at the crowne plaza across the street from the stadium. Public transit is inconvenient and nasty.
I was chastised on this site for staying next door to the stadium. Was told I was an idiot for not staying downtown or midtown. I bet thise idiots are still waiting on the light rail

Te rail was a joke. Downtown was not prepared or ready to handle the crowds. The stadium had a lot of room In the lower concourse levels, but $10 beers sucks.
Had a good time, don't need to go back and I hate that there are servers, bars, restaurants that I would have much preferred to give my my money to than the places we went all weekend.

No beer in 3Q = shithole

Nice but not as good as Arlington

Lsu should play at least 3 home games a year there.

Nice stadium, had upper deck seats but they were still great. Not a bad seat in the stadium really.
Concession lines went quick. Atmosphere was great. Heading over from downtown on the metro was easy and convenient. After the game it was an absolute nightmare....Houston better get that straight before they host their Super Bowl.
Overall it was really fun, and I had a blast in midtown

Agree on both and also if they played turn down for what one more time i was going to cut myself

This is the first legit test of light rail. Folks know the Texans and Rodeo deal, but a true traveling crowd for a big-time college football game was CERTAINLY a tremendous overload for the Metro system (who are essentially a bunch of idiots). Houston advertises light rail, but the truth is it is no where adequate. We rode it to the lot across 610 without issue because we left the game at 00:00 and walked briskly to the train. As some of the first to get there, the line was already looking big, and I can only imagine how big and backed up the line to get on the train was just 15-30 minutes thereafter. If it had been raining as predicted, then it would have been really interesting since there is no covering and it is a nice trot from NRG.

It's a nice stadium. I was pleasantly surprised.

My only complaint.

Stadium: nice. Concessions and parking: nice. Seats: nice. Having to watch FOUR fights breakout in our section between LSU fans: not nice.

Amazing except for concession lines

Probably better than my $70 uber ride

Stayed downtown and the transportation to and from the stadium was god awful. The stadium was nice. Had a good seat in the 300s. Good food and drink selections but the alcohol vendors shut down in 3rd QTR. The fans in this section were pretty lame.

We parked at some dental building parking lot across the street from the stadium for $20.00. Watched Cowboy Mouth a bit before the game, went in early. Had no trouble getting food/drink/beers. Our seats were field level.
I didn't like the acoustics--couldn't hear the band very well (we were at the other end of the field away from the band, 20 yd line).
After the game we got caught in the herd on the way out but the walk to the car was easy and getting out was very easy.
I'm glad we decided not to take the metro as we planned earlier.
Had a great time before, during, and after the game. It was a great day.

Parking lot was harder to get out of than Alex Box--it took 50 min to go 75 yards in a straight line. Stadium nice no problem--view was very good
