However, by turning the field, it looks like now people must go to the corner stairwells to access the seating as it is all upstairs (similar to Rutgers 2012), instead being able to walk directly up the extended bleachers that Lehigh had last year.
Also, what exactly is the 'Peanut Gallery' for?  |
Oh. Okay. Well it seems like a pretty well placed layout. I hope it is even better in person. Less then two days away!
