Never been to a game in the dome. How do the upper deck seats there, compare to Tiger Stadium?

Steep steps. Get about halfway up and feels far away. Video screens no comparison to Mercedes Benz Stadium or Jerry World. Lower part of upper deck is fine

Honestly, it feels pretty distant. If surrounded by a good group, you can still get really into the game.

Also, don't know if anyone realizes it, but it gets pretty cold up there in the terrace seats. Have sat up there for a number of events. Bring at least a sweatshirt.

In my experience, the lower parts of the upper deck in the Superdome are better than the upper decks at a lot of stadiums, and the upper parts are worse.

Watched 2003 and 2007 national championship games from upper deck in dome. Just make sure you’re with LSU fans and you’ll have a great time.
Never sat in Tiger Stadium upper deck and never intend to.

There is less wind and more noise in the superdome

It’s not bad, just tight seating

I know it varies depending on the section but about how many rows are in the upper deck sections?

I watched 2.
Alabama 08 which was a good game but I didn’t like the seats and this year for Florida but it was the first of the Tiger Terrace. The Tiger Terrace is pretty good. The seats are really comfortable and bathroom /concession access is easy and quick. The view is just as good or better than the South Stadium Club.

The upper decks in TS are much higher than the highest seats in the SuperDome.

Anybody know anything about section 101? Just got the tix. Looks too low to see everything for an old guy.

I’ll trade you my two in section 622 for two in 101.

Best seats in the Dome are 200/300 level.

The 100’s are a mile away from the field and not steep enough to see across the whole field.

600’s are steep and you are looking between your knees at the field.

500 and first 10 rows of 600 aren’t too bad.

Way too low for an old guy. Trade with the guy above.

I sat in the corner endzone of the plaza for the 2011 NC game. There wasn't much of an incline and it was hard to see the entire field. I think that they've adjusted the Superdome seating since then, so I can't say if it is the same. They definitely have much bigger and now Hi-Def screens to help when the action is at a distance.

Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta definitely had better sightlines. But, it was also built over 40 years later.

What row? The seats are raised so even the first row is a good view in my opinion. Under the overhang isn’t great.

Be prepared to hold on to the back of your seat when standing for the playing of the National Athem...steep....very steep....
