Re: Einstein Field issues Handled correctly?

-These intro matches are going to be AWESOME for spectators. Imagine 2056, 1114 and 4334 on the field, uninterrupted driving the score up. It would be an EPIC sight. This gives everyone watching a good chance to get a feel for who's going to be playing on Einstein.

So like a complete exhibition match where teams can go in guns blazing? I would LOVE to watch that. Maybe even throw in a 2v2 of all of the #1 seeds. ACvs.GN
