I want bleachers rather than seats in the supporters sections. We will be standing anyway, and the seats get in the way of drums.

I want:
  • a really cool soccer pub (family friendly) that we can hang out in after the games and watch away games in
  • a parking lot just for the supporters groups with a big patch of grass so we can kick the ball around and tailgate before the game (with a bathroom)
  • midfield tunnel for the players to enter
  • a roof over the seats to shade us and keep the noise in
  • confetti blasters on the roof of the stadium for when score goals
  • no cheerleaders or mascots. Ever!
  • 22,000 screaming fans to fill the place up for every game

Seats as close to field as possible, but no glass blocking us from the field (like hockey).

BEER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like the idea of a pub for after the game or to watch the away games.

And I agree with no cheerleaders! WE are the cheerleaders! :dancing:

And we def. need a good view from the corners.

This is pretty cool. Put your name on your stadium! I love this idea.

1) a Midfield entrance
2) no stage(or a retractable stage that goes underneath the endline seats)
3) shaded seats or a retractable roof (ala Uncle Dave's earlier suggestion)
4) make it feel like a stadium inside and out... no strip mall style shared parking and certainly no target and lowes on the same site.
and anything else I think of I will post it later on

-I like the the "buy a piece of the stadium" idea.
-NO STAGE (if anything, I hope Steve takes this from the fans suggestions)
-Close to the pitch as possible
-What about the all-american jumbo screen?
-make it look like a Soccer stadium, not a bowl with cement walls
-artificial turf
-just kidding about that last one:)
-shaded seats
-steeper sitting
...i'm sure there's more

I'd like to add that I like the whole brick idea. And that there should NOT be a stage at one end. Talk about ruining the look. It looks terrible.

Agreed.

Shaded seating and concessions for people over the age of 4.

Oh, and for my parents (one has a broken back and the other one arthritis), more ramps and less stairs to climb up and down.

I love ALL of these ideas!!!! Except for the "close to the pitch" idea. It seems that you wouldn't be able to see the game as well if you had those seats. I guess I just wouldn't buy those seats then. 🙂

The stand for the chant leader is an awesome idea Fue. I guess we may need a couple - one for the RCB section and one for the Loyalists section. I'm not a big fan of beer and drunk fans, but if that's what people want to do, then so be it. I guess I'll be happy I'm not next to RCB 😁

The "buy a piece of the stadium" is about the best idea in history!!!! What would be cool is if all the supporters could get theirs all lumped together in one spot too. Then on opening day we could all gather around it and get our picture taken. It brings a tear to the eye! I'm so excited!!!!

Perhaps front end councourses as well for flag running? And a security detail that would let us do it. Make sure to make the press boxes accommodating so that we can hold more World Cup events and have the press love us for the press boxes.

I love the idea of having the seats be Real's colors. This also helps make the stadium seem full even when a few seats are empty.

Perhaps me and the fam will go and have our next FHE on the site. 😁

Oh man, I'm so excited!! Have I said that enough yet!!! Bottom line: We're getting our own stadium and it's going to be the coolest even if only a few of these things are implemented!!!
