What is the maximum number of seats you think we will ever need in JAS?
30k
15k, so we can always have a sell-out.Quote:

I have more than one answer, and each answer would depend on a scenario to justify that number. Numbers would range, from 25,000 at a low, and my highest guestimate would be 55,000.Quote:

Okay DFW I agree 30K. We have never official sold out in the 46 years its been open (maybe when the capacity was only 23K but I don't remember). We would need 10-15K season tickets to really reach 30K consistently (I believer we have about 6-7k - someone correct me).Quote:

Agree. There's probably a lot that can be done with the existing structure.Quote:

I'm fine with endzone facility and skybox seat additions. You can always keep an option for seat expansion in the plans...just don't prioritize it.Quote:
