Rip down Qualcomm and build new stadium?
Don: That stadium will be gone in probably 5-6 years. The Raiders will be in Las Vegas, and the A's will be playing in a new stadium somewhere in Oakland, or elsewhere.— September 15, 2017 5:46 p.m.
Rip down Qualcomm and build new stadium?
Don: I've taken that trip myself. 6 minutes is accurate. SDSU is only 3 stops away from the stadium site.— September 14, 2017 11:17 p.m.
Rip down Qualcomm and build new stadium?
Don: It is currently the third smallest. The only 2 smaller stadiums are, the soccer stadium the Team That Used To Play Here will play in for the next 3 years, and the Oakland Coliseum (which actually seats 63,000+, but the Raiders cover 10,000 seats with a tarp).— September 14, 2017 3:29 p.m.
Rip down Qualcomm and build new stadium?
They might be parking there already. You know you could find a parking spot with no hassle, and then it's a 6 minute ride to campus. No way could the students get back and forth from the current campus to the stadium site in 6 minutes.— September 14, 2017 2:09 p.m.
Rip down Qualcomm and build new stadium?
But you don't say where the Chargers would play IF they came back to SD. The Raiders were actually averaging less than that, at about 50k per game. And--the Chargers were already valued at over $2 billion before the move north (as just about all franchise values rose, thanks to the Rams doubling in value to $2.9 billion after their move back to LA). As far as $panos selling the club--he can't for 10 years, without incurring a financial penalty from the NFL. Unless, of course, the NFL changes their rules again.— September 14, 2017 1:28 p.m.
Rip down Qualcomm and build new stadium?
Don: It was a historical landmark--at least until the rebuild. It was as if they thought if they kept some of the exterior, it would still be considered a landmark. It was delisted almost immediately upon completion. And--it is also one of the smallest NFL stadiums.— September 14, 2017 10:03 a.m.
Rip down Qualcomm and build new stadium?
Don: It WAS a new stadium, built within the outer walls of the old one.— September 14, 2017 12:27 a.m.
Rip down Qualcomm and build new stadium?
Don: I was using Statista, which has stats on just about everything. However, to see what metrics they used, I have to pay to get that info. Not interested. But Vivid Seats is a resale site (I believe), and I think Statista was using numbers closer to face value of the tickets. But considering the thousands of visiting team fans that went to Charger home games on a regular basis, the Charger season seat holders figured that out long ago and sold their seats to the highest bidder. There appeared to be a better resale market for tickets here than in Jacksonville.— September 14, 2017 12:24 a.m.
Rip down Qualcomm and build new stadium?
Don: Announced tickets include student tickets, which are free (I believe). I don't imagine that many of the paid for tickets go unused.— September 14, 2017 12:13 a.m.
And now a message against SoccerCity
Yes, it is a disaster, if approved.— September 13, 2017 11:16 p.m.
