How much are we talking here for each suite?  How many people do they hold?  I want one.

Current west side suites are $2,650 per seat in 24 seat boxes and you have to be at least a "Victory Level" Ahearn Fund donor.

I would wager that the new west side renovation could triple suite capacity plus add loge box or club level seats.

the seat price has nothing to do with the cost of the suite, the donor level has everything to do with it

Received rumblings that the project is "on hold".  When asked for further comment, all I was told was "it's on hold."

 :runaway:

Absolutely false. Switching to AECOM/Heery has delayed it a bit, because they are starting from scratch with the design — they were not even shown the Populous renderings so that they can be creative without being limited to what was done before. Architects were in town yesterday meeting with AD staff. Sales are very strong from what I've heard. Whoever told you that  :flush:

Oh yeah I hear you. Just giving wes mantooth a baseline figure to shoot for in case meat goat prices plunge and our big timey donor pool dries up.

If you dickholes were hip to the cost of a metric ton of corn these days, you'd know why so many fear-the-bearders are basically wiping their asses with hundred dollar bills.

True, but there's also a drought. Not much corn this year.

Cole, is the increased demand at the high end?  I'm astounded there are that many people that want to shell out the cash.  Maybe do a write up? :pray:

The farm bullshit is directly related to the income level of many, if not most, of our donors.
