New arena info

[4th and State]

Why is that? Bucks main color is green.

I'm of course thinking from an MU perspective and seeing Blue and Gold mixed with green seating everywhere would look bad.

2nd grade color wheel...
our 5th color is technically green.

Blue + gold/yellow = Green

Heading uptown may not be a bad deal, IMO.

This was my thinking as well.  At least when a cupcake gets a small crowd, the seats are blue to blend in.

Go with a neutral dark gray.

If the seats are comfortable and have leg room you can make them bright red for all I care.

[Benny B]

Having green seats everywhere would be a disaster.  Really hope it is a different color.

You only have to live with it until the Thunderdome breaks ground.

This! Being 6'3" in the BC makes kneeing strangers in the back of the head a regular occurrence if I'm not by the aisle.

Don't most stadiums do a darker neutral color anyways? I wouldn't mind a darker green, maybe like Miller park? Maybe not?

Maybe it's just me, but the darker the seats are, the less empty the empty seats appear.

So should we paint the student section black (or very, very dark gray)?

The Brewers are also blue and gold with green seats. No one seems to complain there.

Yeah.  Complaining about seat color, especially in an arena that Marquette does not own and that a green and white team has the rights to and might put green seats in, is beyond silly.

Here's a rendition of the new DePaul arena. I think it has a similar, but nicer layout. Seems to have more seats closer to the action. Either way, stoked about both new arenas.

Now back to the basketball.

And Miller Park always looks empty.

And Miller Park always looks empty.

So what?

[TallTitan34]

In a stadium that size though seat color doesn't really change appearance of capacity.

So what?

I was just posting my preferred seat color and the reasons why. Sorry, I'll stop posting opinions on a message board.

That was funny.

You have good opinions keep posting.

Is this true or just opinion ?  Dark gray would be ideal.

Well if both DePaul fans each sit on a different side of the arena, it will kind of have the appearance of being fuller.

What is this?  An arena for ants?  How are the players supposed to play if they can't even fit in the building?

But the seats are blue and DePaul fans would wear blue, so you can't tell if the seats are empty or not.

Well done!

Not trying to be that guy, as it hasn't been reported, but a good source told me that yesterday. Dark gray or black seats.

Also robmufan pointed out, those green seats would be hell for any use of green screen effects.

I do like the cantelever design of the seats behind the baskets for the student section, with the cascading decks.
