What is your take on the 130 million dollar renovation? Personally, I have been trying to figure out where the 130 mil went to. Is there some improvements? Sure there is but overall I see it as lipstick on a pig. I am going to give my pro and cons and explain why.
-Getting to the lower bowl is much easier as they made new stairways and got rid of the winding ones. I sit on the 50, ten rows up and this was nice. +1
- The new gates are terrible, always jammed up. My son and I got in line at 1220 for one of the games and missed 3 minutes of the first quarter. It was never that bad and obviously was a marketing choice to get people to come even earlier to spend money once inside. -1
-Those damn boulders all over the outside of the stadium is plain ridiculous! Why not put in some large gas fire pits with outside vendors near by? And while they are at it have a band playing. -1
-The black paint scheme looks borderline gothic on the outside. It should of been Bills colors. -1
-The new Bills store is nice, but not much of an improvement overall and you have to enter the stadium on game day to access it. =
- Ah the restrooms!!!! Same darn urinals I have been pissing in since I was 4. They did get rid of those trough hand washing stations finally. -1
- The dingy concourses- I feel like I am in total filth. The concession stands are virtually the same as well, and please don't tell me that at least they take credit. It is 2014 and we were way behind the curve. And why not have heat lamps in the concourses? -1
-The new jumbotron and opposite end corner screens are really nice. I love it and give a +2 for this.
Overall I came up with a -2. Sure its a simple approach, but I just don't see the 130 million and overall I am disappointed.
