FSU AD has CRITICAL Stadium Updates & Answers Tough Question

FSU Football is undergoing some HUGE changes over at Doak Campbell Stadium. I sit down with Michael Alford, FSU's AD, to chat about the exciting updates, people's concerns, and what's next for the Seminoles!
Appreciate our friends over at the Mango Board! Today is not the most fun but it would be more fun with a Mango! Make sure to grab a couple the next time you're at your local grocer! mango.org

Ultimately, if you lost your seat or were priced out... I do feel bad for you. That's brutal. What I am happy about is that FSU's AD and leadership were very open about the reasons why. FSU's ticket cost was significantly lower than their what their peers were charging and for them to remain competitive, they need to be on par there. I also appreciate the way they went about the process- offering to meet with every single season ticket holder individually. I've never heard of a program doing anything like this. I understand that this doesn't "fix" everything. But, I do think that a difficult decision had to be made and 1) it was made for the right reasons and 2) it was done the right (and most delicate) way possible.

25 year booster & 21 year season ticket holder. I lost my seats & I have no issue with the price increase. However, I wasn’t offered any opportunity to sit down & talk about my options.

[@DoubleFriesNoSlaw]

@@DannyA.-io9su Hmmm, I'm a much lower booster (in terms of years and likely type) -- could have ended up in Spam? I got several emails about setting up a meeting. Would suggest reaching out to the Boosters to confirm. Thanks for the note!

We lost our seats. We are 51 year boosters and can’t afford new tickets 😭

[@enoshnewby6960]

But why not build more seats rather than get rid of some and make them “luxury “. Yea adding more could cost more but it’ll pay for itself and actually justify an increase in prices. Also getting 90-100,000 + seating just means more of a homegirls advantage and more sales at concessions as well

Bring the Spirit Spear back

[@chriswaller6859]

I wasn't pleased when I lost my seats and had to sit in enemy territory, and all because I needed one more seat than allowed. Having said that, I'll be planning to get better seats beck in home territory for the 25 season, but I do think we needed to expand, not contract. We will need many more seats once we leave the all Carolina conference.

Stadiums that change too much for more space an less people make a worse experience. Part of the experience is hearing the crowd roar an be loud an if it loses that I ain't going no matter what amenity you add

[@TracyFSU32306]

Thank you for all you do, AD Alford!! 🎉

[@aprilholli]

Love our A.D. Alford!

Bigtime interview right there fam, well done bro

GO NOLES 🍢💯

[@timothyblack3322]

It did not work properly, skip the loudness spear!! The video board give every incentive to get loud. Go Noles!

[@mark8337]

Yeah, with older stadiums they can be kept, but have to prioritize reno with safety/security one, access and egress second, bathrooms (number and functionality) third, concessions fourth, then the cosmetic piece after.

Fire Willie's DJ ASAP!!!

[@alonzokeatonjr1107]

I’m highly confused on who he talked to with all due respect, maybe talk to the fans, we needed more seats we have sooo many fans and they should majority be in the stadium. We aren’t competing with anybody downsizing, we should at least have 105,000 in doak. As a fan this is sad, think about the team and how they interact with the crowd. 😢 #moreseat

[@RoscoPColtrane17]

I feel the same way. This was very disappointing.

[@vasicdude9430]

Points of sale doesn't make the customer experience better.....

[@kevinhorn4219]

I just hope it isn’t the same eye sore that the Champion’s Club has been. It looks pathetic every time I see it on TV.

[@jeffreyburress2200]

If you joined the SEC you will need 100,000 seats. No kidding.
