    Like when they look at Christmas sales and say it was a record amount people spent on Christmas this year, so things must be good. Not factoring in current inflation making things higher priced. Things are not that good as it appears on paper.

    Cliffs notes:
    1. Add free Wi-Fi in dome
    2. Upgrade dome concessions
    3. Replace blue seats with green/gold seats

    I don't think these alone will bring back 7-8k fans, but it's a good start.
    Those won't do shit to move the needle on attendance. Here's my top three list to actually get shit done:

    1. Move to FBS
    2. Renovate the FargoDome
    3. Sell Beer

    Not one extra ticket is going to be sold if the seat colors are changed.

    The alerus has Wi-Fi. How hard can it be to get it in the dome. Asking people to tweet photos in the dome is the ultimate troll.

    I don’t care if they sell beer as long as I don’t have to put up with drunks like the ones behind me at und. I’m not into strangers shaking me by the shoulders. The family next to me finally left because it got so bad. These guys couldn’t even walk up the stairs and had a beer in each hand.

    Some of the consessions were closed Saturday and they are boring. Fix the damn pretzels. (And dippin dot spoons)

    The idea of flex pacts is excellent. They’ve been doing it with other sports

    All those years of bragging about sell outs in August didn’t help with during season ticket sales
    I like to surround myself with people who share in my inappropriate comments, sarcasm, and random shenanigans

    I've mentioned the wifi so many times; I'm completely fascinated on how the dome authority could be so far behind on this. It is complete and utter incompetence.

    The dome is an absolute relic, shitty concessions and no wifi is a joke. Outside of the jumbotron little has been done to boost the fan experience in a long time.
    NDSU to the FBS always. In all ways.

    The big turd floating in a toilet last saturday left by a pervious user was a new fan experience for me. Not a good one.

    Wasn't me. I was never there.

    But, how could you tell the user was pervious based only the remaining evidence?

    Well props to you for navigating the omitted purple.

    Obviously though either way you spelled it you would be correct.

    That was/is a massive upgrade and it's great to have for special videos and the like. I know this is a no brainer, no shit, comment but it sucks that 40% of it is taken up with advertising 80% of the time during a game.
