I'm going to contact the administration with some things I think need to be changed to enhance the gameday experience. Feel free to add to the list of things which can be changed pretty easily (ie: not the we need an on campus stadium, its not the OB, etc comments).

1) Replays - these need to be shown just like those watching on TV can see. Its absolute BS that a play gets reviewed but the people in the stands rarely get to ever see the replay.

2) Gametime/Halftime start of play clock - the scoreboard inside the seating area shows a countdown clock to when the game or 2nd half starts but there isn't any clock indication outside in the concession area.

Pretty sure point one is due to ACC rules. They dont want them replayed over and over and possibly rile up the fans more.
 
Change the music in the stadium.

If I wanted to dance, I'd go to LIV. This is football. Our players look like they have a case of teh gheys when we are blasting Rihanna, Avicii, and LMFAO every other play.

So you think "I'm **** and I know it" isn't football music?
 
If they play Gangnam Style again, the next thing you'll hear from me is Allahu Akbar.

- If you take things into perspective - before the FSU games, replays were a dime a dozen. I do agree it needs to get better.
- Music must change - they remove the DJ from past season - perfect example, last week against UNC they played Rick Ross - Hold me back and the players got into it.
- There should be no silence during the game, when there are timeouts play some **** music to keep the crowd into it as well.

Most schools have large bands that fill major voids during games and help with momentum shifts with college fights songs and cheers etc. We got nothing. I'm glad they got rid of the ***goty dj booth, that was awful. We need a bigger band, and quite frankly, for the eleventy billionth time, we play in a stadium much too large for our fanbase.
 
I think the parking situation is atrocious. I arrived more than 3 hours before the game, and the traffic was already bad. The police looked lost in directing traffic, and I tried to enter my gate (3), it was only half open, since they had a metal fence obstructing traffic. When I went to my parking area (green), it was already full, because they had closed off of a significant part of the lot for limos, which btw, never filled up.
 
Donna Shalala ruined the music at the games. Complete fact. The ONE good thing Randy Shannon did was bring back rap to the games, and Shalala nixed it.

The whole point of the green parking pass is so that you can get in an hour before everyone else and not have to deal with the directional parking crap. Kind of defeats the purpose to show up 3 or 4 hours after it's been opened.

got there a lil late, around 4:30 but the orange pass had cops waving us in amid the mayhem,
 
Green gates opened up at about 12:30. The rest opened up at 2. Yall boys were a little more than a little late. If any of you went to the last FSU game, and probably the OU game, you should have learned your lesson there if you didn't wanna deal with the traffic.
 
The parking was not an issue considering the size and drunkeness of the all day tailgate. Crowd was rockin, music was LOUD and the White Stripes was perfect blend over that chomp BS and stole it as us cheering...... it is not perfect(like the replay idea) but exponentially better than past(2 years ago FSU-which was a bad experience all around). There have been improvemnets in the game day experience if you go regularly..
