It should be a good thing. Now your smartphone will work at the game when you connect to WiFi vs having nothing on an overloaded wireless carrier’s network.

This is great news. Fans can treat their afternoons at the stadium like a trip to Panera Bread for latte and think-tank time on the laptop.

Guess it will be a big deal to a lot of fans, so that a a good thing, not that important to me, wife seems to be happy about it.

You can say that again.

I think that’s part of it. But I think it’s also because people don’t want to sit in the heat and they can watch it on their giant 50 inch flatscreen TVs that they can purchase for a grand.

Most kids today view sharing across social platforms as their social life. Not necessarily spending three hours in the heat at a football game. I’m not saying that it’s right or wrong – I’m just saying that’s the way it is.

Very on top of the game news wise as usual. They have been out there for 2 weeks putting those boxes everywhere. All it seems to me is that it will make even small and tight seating areas even smaller and tighter. Perhaps they could use that money an give me a men's room where I am not swimming in urine on game day or the place does not smell like SHYT.

That’s all I need. Another electromagnetic emitting device within a foot of my nads.

And here we are paying homage to an internet message board.

Hey – that looks familiar…

Look....it will make it much, much easier to coordinate with others where to meet up after the game. That alone makes it well worth it.

Don't care. Won't make me more or less likely to go to a game. If that is your determining factor as to whether to go to a game or not please stay home. You'll be too busy sending selfies with those superimposed bunny noses to someone two rows away to actually be worth a $h!t to the team anyway.

What a bunch of old geezers, and that’s coming from an old geezer.
There’s not one down side to this and many upsides. A big one for me is being able to access the chat box occasionally during the games. For instance after the excitment from the heave to Cleve calmed down, l knew it had to be crazy in the box, but it was impossible to log in. The students will love this and getting the word out should be a priority for the UAA.

Yep...no rush, not operational until 2019....
