Multiple studies have supposedly shown this though. Would be sweet to partner with dome though and have the FDA cover the seat expansion and new roof with NDSU fundraising for the cost of the east side suites. At least that way we would own them and control the revenue stream. I would gladly pay a $5 surcharge on tickets over the next 20 years to help fund this.
