FC/OT: Beaver stadium video boardsā¦

Looks good. Lots and lots of extra video board space for them to push ads and refuse to put up scores of other games. 
They were posting scores on the lower strip during the entire BG gameā¦Looks good. Lots and lots of extra video board space for them to push ads and refuse to put up scores of other games.
They have posted them for a long time.
And from most vantage points, they are extremely difficult to read. Yes, if you carry binoculars it makes it way easier but by and large it is really bad.
Additionally, from our POV and everyone in our section agrees, the new graphics on the big board during the game are really lousy as well.
Is this all worth bitching about? Since you canāt get a signal to look anything up on your phone, yes it is. You would think they understand people are interested in more than whatās going on down on the field during every break in the action.
But, Weis Markets has a brand new slightly larger ribbon for boosting five day old meatā¦ā¦

Is that the new Chinese grocery store I heard was moving into town?? Itās funny how an apostrophe typo can change everything.
Thanks for pointing that out! Yes, itās amazing what spell check/ auto correct can do to a thought on an IPad.
Congrats on being the first negative Nancy.Looks good. Lots and lots of extra video board space for them to push ads and refuse to put up scores of other games.
There is no doubt they need to bring in as much advertising revenue as possible. They also bring in a tidy sum from their fanbase. Giving / showing a little love to the fans is not unreasonable. I am pretty certain they are aware of this common complaint.

Tgar,
Agree with all you mentioned with an addition.
The a$$e$ were 1/2 sentence on the upper message strip in both the National Anthem & Our Alma Mater. I sit on the 43 yd line, difficult to read the lines due to the strong sun's glare on the stadium south side and impossible to read on the north side due to the sun's reflection on the upper message strip.
In previous yrs, the words were displayed on the lower strip.
I didn't notice any scores on the message strips, only on the lower left corner of the score board, too small & difficult to read from mid field.
F'en clowns.
Ads can only hope to be effective when eyes are on them. If people donāt have a reason to look in certain directions because the content they seek canāt be read, well weād better hope the marketers donāt take note and reduce their willingness to spend.
View from my seats in the H.C. Section'
The yellow arrows indicate where additional advertisement strips are being installed on the north & south sides of the stadium.
green arrows indicate where the sentences to the National Anthem and Alma Mater are presented in the smallest strip in the stadium.
