I don't know.  Something more secluded from the student section, I guess.  They just look odd to me for some reason.

How do you pronounce the word "loge"?

Do they come with the sled or do you have to bring your own?

I think it will be cool. Anything to make Bramlage more unique.  Plus, I like picturing myself in those seats sipping on some imported beer watching the games....in about 20 years.

I'm with Rusty on this one.  Those don't look like $3000/seat to me.  Maybe $1000.   That looks like a glorified press box, not a $3,000 box seat.

What I had pictured was a box with a bar at the back of the box (sink, fridge, counter, etc) and then 3 high-top bar tables with 3 bar chairs around each or something like that in front, with a couple of tvs mounted from the ceiling and windows that you could either leave shut or else raise the bottom half of to "get the atmosphere."  These boxes don't look conducive to too much business dealing.

So 'Pad... are you going to be buying one of these seats, or are you still proudly disassociated?

It's especially crazy when you can get courtside seats for $1000 more.

Cool, it hurts that we don't have two decks.

Not to mention it having on huge deck looks horrid.

Yep...looks like the club level football stuff...

Cheap...but they will charge a ton.

The club level for football is good though IMO.. I really actually just don't understand boxes in basketball period..

Because there are people that will pay it...that's why.

Now, don't ask me why they would pay that much for a seat at the TOP of the arena...

I read that they will serve alchohol but I don't know how that's possible.

No, I agree with the AD building it and exploiting the people that will fork over the cash. I don't agree with the people that fork over the cash, I don't understand why you would get that seat when you can either get a floor seat for a grand more or get chairbacks that are closer to the floor. The only difference is alcohol and your own armrest.

You guys don't understand the Johson County mentality of buying things you dont' need just to show people that you have one.

It' the same as in football suites...you pay the money and can pretty much do what you want.

Still PROUDLY disassociated, but thanks for asking youngster.

Now on the viability of these seats . . . having been in the club level at the football stadium, and been in suites in other arenas and stadiums it's pretty awesome.

Does the Phog have luxury box seats or courtside seats?
Title: Re: Get your Loge Box Seat . . . right here.
Post by: plaincat on January 31, 2007, 04:37:55 PM
Those seats in Allen would go for $50,000/yr easy.

That's how stupid those people are.

And by stupid, I mean because: A. They have fans that would pay that amount. and B. They haven't done it.

Look for them to copy us in the very near future.

Just so you know.. telling Dax he is disassociated is not smack or even in the realm of a jab.

I do this to save all you people of knowing that Dax will become a KSUFANS.COM Hall of Famer someday.

I admire the 'Pad.  The man has passion, and for that, I respect him.  He's one of those guys you want on your side. 

It's still fun to push his buttons every now and then.  I still can't figure how in the hell someone gets disassociated from their own university though.  It must have been something pretty serious.

Oh, I almost forgot... there are rumors that ku is planning on eliminating some of the media seating and adding courtside seats.  Should happen sometime in the near future.

Thanks Rod  :crybaby:

No BMW . . . it wasn't serious, which makes it all the funnier.

'Pad, in all honesty, you crack me up sometimes.  

I hope you don't take anything personally.  You have far more loyalty than I ever would if I were in the same position.

I think they look pretty nice.  I'm not sure what people were expecting, enclosed boxes like suites in the football stadium?  That doesn't make much sense b/c your inside.  This gives folks a lot of what they want; they can spend a bunch of money to park close, come right in the Octogon and get to their seat quick and not go down a bunch of stairs, and then be able to watch on the TV while enjoying a drink.  They'll sell easily.  And remember, most folks aren't like us and don't want to be right in the heart of the action, this feeling of almost being there while being there is right up a lot of folk's alleys, plus the status of having a "loge seat" when the Cats are competing for titles.

It's especially crazy when you can get courtside seats for $1000 more.

But you can't booze it up during the game courtside ... at least not officially.

Nope.  A ku fan not understanding how a fan could become disassociated from his university doesn't surprise me. 

There is a reason they call you guys The Flock.  You guys are like robots who can't see past Douglas County lines.  Dax spoke his mind about what was happening within his Athletic Dept.

FWIW, the box seats look nice.  Wish we had something similar planned for Allen Fieldhouse.

If things continue they have the last two games, they can put them on the other side. Those big pocket people will be upset and have their boxers all up in a bunch becuase they have students standing in front of them. This old/rich folk will be discouraging to the studnet body. Stick them over with the rest of the donors...the ones that sit.
