Not sure how I feel about giving fans a reason to leave their seat during the game and go to a “pub” that doesn’t even have a view of the field. I guess we’ll see.

Better beer selection. Count me in.

Why would we use any of them when we can just wear the throwbacks every game?

I think it’s a good idea to try to get more of the apathetic fans in the gates. If the game is good, then you get them exposed to a great atmosphere and maybe they come back. If the game is bad, well at least you captured some revenue you might not normally have lol

They should have it open during away games too.

They experimented a bit opening the Alumni Pavilion during away games when Apogee first opened. I always thought that was a good idea.
