JDuck No. 1 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Looking everywhere for pics of what Hayward looks like with 25,000 seats...basically doubling to meet the world standard. Doesn't look like it will fit very well in the north end, curious if anyone has any pics or renditions, I've searched the web and came up blank. Wish I could just go, what a cool event. Can't imaging traffic and hotels in Eugene right now. I've been working in Alaska, hotels in Fairbanks are often in the $600/night range, endless tourists. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if this is helpful, but this is the ticket seating for the big event. Compare the two images. You can see where the extra seating is at. They seems to be able to add a lot of seating on the one side, but not sure how many seats that really is. But from what Haywarduck's picture and what mine is showing, they can certainly hold up to 30,000 seats. Edited July 14, 2022 by NJDuck 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Covid requirements? I imagine the global increase in the price of fuel, both gasoline and airline, is a major factor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
