Actually, stays about the same (92,600). The renovation makes the West side match the East side so that closing in either end-zone upper deck in the future will connect perfectly. Also, the renovation includes some suites and a new pressbox. (If they decide in the future to close in one of the upper decks, it would increase to the neighborhood of 115,000 to 120,000.)

And The Big House (Michigan) is 110,000 if I remember correctly. Nice...if what Geux says is true, the Tigers would have the largest stadium in the country....until UM figures that out and decides to paint the stripes on their bench seats all one inch closet to eachother like they did the last time the fell behind by a couple thousand. :rolleyes:

If Sanford ever get's closed in all the way and they remove the bridge view...i can imagine it will be the largst in the coutnry by far.

Dayum, that's a lotta folks. I look forward to the day when we bowl in our North End Zone and get 80-85K...
