color of seats in stadium

[dwbiggs]

Does anyone know why the seats in the 2nd level, I guess, are randomly colored red and yellow with no apparent order or pattern. Makes the stadium look bush league. Anyone know the reason for this?

[what_would_joe_gibbs_do]

some seat were broken and replaced in an uncoordinated fashion

[dwbiggs]

some seat were broken and replaced in an uncoordinated fashion

Thats what I first thought but it had to be a whole lot of broken seats. Can't believe they let it stay like that.

[MWCREDSKINS]

I don't know but the stadium was a disgrace last night. Ice on the stairs and in the aisle. I seriously almost fell and would've tore up my knee and sued Snyder. It was a danger zone up there

[Rocky21]

The random color of the seats is to disguise the fact that lots of people in the club section are in the concourse instead of watching the game.

[No_Pressure]

The burgundy ones are season ticket holders. A friend of mine has a whole row of them for his family. They are padded, burgundy, and have their names on them. Pretty nice deal. Others are owned for the season by businesses and have a company name instead of an individual's on them, which would probably explain partially why so many of them are empty (for some reasons these company people don't like sitting out in the cold :doh: ) but hey I don't complain, more seats for me from my dad's company outside when I am home ;)

You are right...googled up fed ex field pics and they were all yellow in the begining and later pics showed more and more red seats going in.

Ya, unlike the thousands of fans in the upper deck who flat out just didnt show up, right?

And by the way, the red seats in the club level are seats that have been padded and personalized with a name tag. It costs extra (of course) and is available to everyone that owns a club level lease on tickets.

[RedlightG20]

From what I've heard, season ticket holders in the club level can pay to get their seats recolored burgundy with padding and a name plate. So thats what they are.

If I had the dough to move down to club level I'd do that in a heartbeat.

[No_Pressure]

Not true.

I've sat in them. True.

[freetimmysmith]

the burgundy seats are upgraded seats from the stock yellow ones.

[Blingon]

This is correct.

[Glockypoo]

I've sat in them. True.
Really smart guy? I've had club level season tickets for 6 years. The red seats with personalized tags are an option to all club level season ticket holders. I have yellow seats. I am a season ticket holder. You sir, are wrong.

I don't see how I didn't say that in my original post...in fact thats exactly what I said...

Ok, I'll play.


The burgundy ones are season ticket holders.
I am a season ticket holder. I sit in yellow seats. Have for 6 years. This is an incorrect statement.

Comprende?

[dwbiggs]

Bad decision...looks like S$%t. Looks like a 50 year old stadium that has had seats replaced with whatever is on hand.

If you are going to argue, know what you're arguing. He said the burgundy ones were season ticket holders. Which they are. This doesn't mean that ALL season ticket holders have burgundy seats, just that the burgundy ones are for sure season ticket holders. Therefore, it is a correct statement. If he had said all season ticket holders in the club section have burgundy seats then you would be right, but he didn't. Admit defeat now and save yourself some dignity.

All seats at Fedex, with the exception of a few, are owned by season ticket holders. But I'm not going to sit here and argue semantics with you, because obviously you crawled inside this kid's head when he was typing his post and you have complete comprehension of what he meant. Its a battle I just cant win.

And now, I'm off to save my diginity..I'll be back in a few.

So you're saying that people who aren't season ticket holders own burgundy seats? No, you aren't. Only season ticked holders own those seats. Whether or not every season ticket holder has burgundy seats has nothing to do with the fact that the burgundy seats = somebody with season tickets. It is not an incorrect statement, you just like to play semantics and start unnecessary e-fights. Well you won't get it here buddy, why don't you go quote the guy who claimed they were broken seats being replaced instead of the person who actually knows what the hell he's talking about?

Hey, I called myself a douche! I'm claiming a lack of sleep as my defense. I didnt mean to start an e-fight over something petty like this. My bad.

And you're right, my real beef was with the poster that claimed they were just broken seats.

close. Club level has a lot of season ticket holders. IF someone has season tickets they can upgrade thier seats with a plaque with their name on it and a cushioned seat. Not all people get this. It's the same way everywhere. Some lower level seats have the padded cushion for your butt but it does not signify a season ticket holder. It just happens that the ones on the lower level dont seem out of place because ALL the seats are burgandy

[SkinsFanMania]

Does anyone know why the seats in the 2nd level, I guess, are randomly colored red and yellow with no apparent order or pattern. Makes the stadium look bush league. Anyone know the reason for this?

I've heard that they do this to cover up the fact that some aren't sold.

[dwbiggs]

And the plot thickens....

[RFKFedEx]

OK, can we all just agree that the padded burgundy seats on the club level are an upgrade option to season ticket holders only?

All of the burgundy seats belong to season ticket holders, but
not all season ticket holders on the club level have burgundy seats. Aye?

You can also get personalized seats w/your own name plate and a darker shade of burgundy if you buy Touchdown Club seats in the lower level b/t the 25 yardlines.

[psu2008]

Jeez guys no need to argue over seats...

btw, the seats that are burgundy on the club level are padded seats and you pay extra for them...or atleast you used too...maybe not now and they are included in club season tixs

here is the link about them http://redskins.com/tickets/premiumNewsDetail.jsp?id=15122

[greenspandan]

I've sat in them. True.

no, not true. burgundy seats do not equal season ticket holders. most if not all the club level seats are season ticket holders. the burgundy seats are an upgrade the ticketholder can but, and it costs quite a bit extra. tehy are indeed nice -- the burgundy seats have padding and a nameplate like others have stated -- but the majority of season ticket holders in that level choose not to get the upgrade because it is overpriced.

[RFKFedEx]

Some lower level seats have the padded cushion for your butt but it does not signify a season ticket holder.

No man. Those dark burgundy seats in our section all belong to TD club members b/c they have personalized name plates on the seats and the occupants always have TD club ID necklaces w/their field passes, etc.

Sometimes I squat in those seats when the TD clubbers fail to show up.

A lot of them hang out upstairs for the entire game.

[RFKFedEx]

but the majority of season ticket holders in that level choose not to get the upgrade because it is overpriced.

I don't have the data in front of me, but I wanna say it's a few hundred $ per seat, per year just to have the padding.

Wouldn't it be easier just to bring a seat cushion?

[natsfan3]

Does anyone know why the seats in the 2nd level, I guess, are randomly colored red and yellow with no apparent order or pattern. Makes the stadium look bush league. Anyone know the reason for this?

The red ones are padded. The owners of those tickets can request padded seats for a fee of course

[PaperTowels]

I had a conversation with my friend before the game against miami earlier this season. We came in early so it was pretty empty. We figured from the sky looking down, it says Washington Redskins.

[RFKFedEx]

I wouldn't be surprized if some of the burgundy seats on the club level are no longer season ticket holders.

B/c the padded seat upgrade has been available for a good five years now, you know some of those season ticket holders have declined to renew over the years.

I doubt that it's cost efficient to remove the burgundy seats and replace them w/the old yellow ones.

Thus, the padded seats are an extra bargaining tool for new club seat contracts, and if no one chooses those seats for a particular season, they can be sold on Stubhub on an individual game basis.

Thus, if one ends up w/ a padded club seat for a game you bought from a broker of Stubhub, you'll know it probably came from the Redskins.

As I said on the 2nd page, I wasn't saying every season ticket holder had burgundy seats, I said the burgundy seats represented a season ticket holder, which is true. I know my friend had to get a special package to get his name in the seat, etc. but I didn't think it was really important to mention. All burgundy seats = season ticket holders, what I said was correct. If I were to go further and say all season ticket holders = burgundy seats, that would be incorrect, but it wasn't what I was trying to say. I wanted to clear up the confusion a few posts above mine that they were broken seats or something.

Three pages on this?

I used to be a club season ticket holder. The two comments above are correct. It has nothing to do with whether you are a business or an individual.

No i don't know what he "meant" no one can. Nor did i argue i knew what he meant. We only have what was SAID. And according to only what he said, he made no mistake in that statement. But hope your day gets better.

[Mark The Homer]

Well, while we're on the subject of inane details of club seats (this is a bit off topic), I still say the supposedly wider club seats are no wider than the seats in row 29 of the upper deck. I meant to bring a measuring tape the last time I was in there, but I forgot. But I've sat in and out of the club dozens of times and I can't tell a difference. Also, if you view photos of the stadium and if you count the seats as they're lined up in row 1 of the club and vs the last row of the 100 level, I count 23 in the row 1 club and 22 in the last row of the 100 level. Therefore they can't be wider upstairs in the club.

I believe the "wider seats in the club" is a myth, based on the original documentation sent out my JKC in 1996 just after the stadium broke ground. I believe the old man later changed his mind and put in normal sized seats in the club. That's my theory.

Comments?

[RFKFedEx]

I'm not sure about the club seats being wider than the upper or lower level seats, but I wouldn't be surprized if they were all the same, b/c it would have saved JKC some $ to purchase 78,000 seats all cast from the same mold. Plus he could increase the capacity of the 300 level by a few thousand chairs, not like it needed to be any bigger when it's never sold out from day one.

I have noticed that the Cave seats added in 2004 appear to be more narrow than the lower level seats from 1997.

As most of y'all know, I have season tickets in the Club.

I have these optional upgraded burgundy seats and they are great.

Much more padding then my Redskins seat cushion I use to bring when I had the original yellow seats.

They cost $250 per seat (one time fee) so my upgrade would have been $500 for the pair, but I negotiated them into my contract extension and got them for FREE. :cheers:

The Club seats are wider then the upper and lower sections.

We also have built-in drink holders.

[greenspandan]

yep i've sast in both and club seats are definitely roomier. maybe they are just spaced further apart or something, but i definitely had more legroom in the club level. the cupholders are really nice too.

[Gatorskin76]

When I originally read the post by The-Rock I thought it was meant to communicate that red meant season ticketholder, and yellow meant company owned season tickets. I went back and read it again, and that is still what I get. The comment: "which would probably explain partially why so many of them are empty (for some reasons these company people don't like sitting out in the cold)" is probably what led to me to read it that way.

[CallMeGreen]

The random color of the seats is to disguise the fact that lots of people in the club section are in the concourse instead of watching the game.
There's a little known fact about this theory. To the untrained-eye, it appears to be a random arrangement of yellow and burgundy-colored seats, but the real secret comes out when you put on your special 3-D Redskin Vision glasses with red and yellow lenses. Only then will you be able to decode the hidden message: "Come sit here and spend money".

... (this is a bit off topic)...
To which I can certainly say 'thank you'.

My theory is that the seats only appear or "feel" wider in the club level. This is done with a very simple, yet commonly applied illusion. Magicians do this kind of thing all the time. And now the secret! They make your wallet smaller by sucking all the money out of before you actually step foot into the club level. And if you're willing to upgrade to the burgundy, name-plated asspads, those will cush you up to the point you no longer even feel your wallet in your back pocket.


We also have built-in drink holders.
Ahh, yes but are they pre-filled with chilled beverages when you arrive to your seat? I hear Jerrah Jones is going to do this in his new stadium.


The Club seats are wider then the upper and lower sections.The "So, nyah-nyah-nyah, now take that!" is implied.:D

[crackerbaby00]

Can't disagree with you here. It does look bad.


Once they are changed to Burgandy, they are never changed back....so eventually...at least one would hope...all of them will be Burgandy

[crackerbaby00]

So you're saying that people who aren't season ticket holders own burgundy seats? No, you aren't. Only season ticked holders own those seats. Whether or not every season ticket holder has burgundy seats has nothing to do with the fact that the burgundy seats = somebody with season tickets.

Not always true....when someone's contract runs out, they do not change the seats back to gold...they keep them at burgandy. So the seats could be unowned and still be burgandy

[crackerbaby00]

I don't have the data in front of me, but I wanna say it's a few hundred $ per seat, per year just to have the padding.

Wouldn't it be easier just to bring a seat cushion?

It is a 1 time fee...sometimes included in the contract but otherwise it is a few hundred bucks

The seats are at least 2 inches wider. The reason they line up so well is because the "circle" for the club level is larger than the lower bowl...so it looks the same

They have 3 sizes of seats in the stadium...the regular size, some that are 2 inches wider, and then some that are 3-4 inches wider than the standard size in case there are any people who need a larger seat

[HighPlainsDrifter]

Without some kind of solid reference, I'm not convinced. I believe you've mentioned these same figures before - a while back in another thread many moons ago.

When I am counting seats, the seats I am counting are almost directly underneath the other ones I'm counting. So the arc is no bigger or smaller.

Two inches per seat, that's over three feet in a row of 20. Therefore the cheap seats directly below would either have an extra seat or two in the row, or have an extra two inch gap between them. But it doesn't appear that they do in the photos.

Okay, clearly I am going to have to measure these seats once and for all. That will remove all the guess work.

And finally, I am assigning this important thread a five star rating. :)

[21KO]

I've heard that they do this to cover up the fact that some aren't sold.

FWIW, and it doesn't sound like it applies to FedEx, the Superdome did exactly that. Random colors so that empty seats don't show up as well. Tour guide told me. Verrry tricky!

A large gentleman who sat behind me at Caps games would bring a tape measure from year to year and noticed that the same seats were actually smaller from one year to the next. No joke.

[BudIce75]

As an owner of the burgundy club level seats i can say this... the Redskins organization gave the upgraded burgundy seats to anyone who signed a 10 year contract on club level seats. Anyone interested in taking over the contract?

[d0ublestr0ker0ll]

I'd like it if every seat in the stadium was burgundy. The yellow is some ****.

Mark, I know you have argued this before....its called Circumfrence of a circle my friend. The Circumfrence in the club level is greater than the lower level...hence the extra size.

I can assure you they are at least 2 inches wider.

[chipwhich]

As I said on the 2nd page, I wasn't saying every season ticket holder had burgundy seats, I said the burgundy seats represented a season ticket holder, which is true.

Technically no this could be false. The seats that are burgundy ONCE contained a season ticket holder. There is no guarantee all burgundy seats still have ticket holders. When a plan expires they don't rip out the seat and replace it. You also don't get to take it with you. :D

[Joe Sick]

I took my son out on the concourse for an extended halftime. He was playing on the replacement seats. There were black and burgundy ones. Didn't see gold seats.

And the mystery continues...

Just so you know, the stadium director of operations was there at 4 a.m. yesterday morning, with crews, trying to get the ice and snow off of the aisles.

Keep the ice off there, the side walks, and other areas was a tremendous job.

[Sharkdart]

Yeah I notice during the game that a bunch of seats are empty.

I was in the club level and where I was the seats were pretty full. Some fans were going into the heated area, but a lot of the time they were in their seats. I noticed the color and the burgundy seats are padded seats, the yellow aren't.

[RFKFedEx]

I think the padded burgundy seats on the club level look good w/the gold frames that hold them in place. This allows for a 90% burgundy and about 10% gold, the perfect ratio of our colors. I wish the entire stadium was color coordinated that way.

I'm glad the original seats in the stadium have been weathered over the last decade b/c the burgundy seats in the upper and lower levels were way too red and the yellow seats on the club level were too bright of a yellow, esp. when the corner endzones were always empty. The seating bowl color combo looked like McDonalds. It has improved slightly w/age.

Me too. In fact, wouldn't it be cool if we played every game at dusk with a partly cloudy sky. That way we could have a burgundy gold sky to go along with the seats.

Swap in 2" wider seats in the lower and upper levels and the stadium would be PERFECT! :D

It gets better:

At Jack Kent Cooke Stadium outside Washington, home of the Redskins, the club section seats, or chairs, as the management refers to them, are a full five inches wider than those in the main seating areas.

Many of the new stadiums offer such seats, along with a premium class of even wider ones, called club seating, which is usually two inches wider than standard.

Five inches??? Hahah, you gotta be kidding me. Maybe in the loge. Maybe.

I don't know but the stadium was a disgrace last night. Ice on the stairs and in the aisle. I seriously almost fell and would've tore up my knee and sued Snyder. It was a danger zone up there

If you saw the ice then you'd have no business suing Snyder; you'd just be joining with the most pathetic group of people this country has to offer.

Swap in 2" wider seats in the lower and upper levels and the stadium would be PERFECT! :D

Ya, b/c then we'd have 75,000 seats like most NFL stadiums, fewer empties on gamedays, and perhaps a slightly higher demand for the tix that often aren't worth the cardboard they're printed on. See Thursday night.

Oh, wait. I forgot we have a seven year waitlist of 155,000 names. We should be adding more seats.
