More Seats in the Coliseum

USC sports information is reporting that "seating capacity in the Coliseum has been upped from 92,000 to 93,607 with the addition of seats in the lower northeast (Sections 27 and 28) and southeast (Sections 1 and 2) areas of the stadium."

Those would be the sections on either side of the peristyle/sun deck. The additional seating will allow certain groups to be rearranged (e.g. making the student section more contiguous), with the extra capacity going toward season-ticket holders and possibly some limited general admission.

A representative called this "a year of unprecedented demand." All of the football games are sold out, but there's a chance that a limited amount of tickets (for a couple of games) will go on public sale soon.

Are these seats going to have the terrible sight-lines I think they're going to?

Adam Rose learned about the highs and lows of USC athletics while going to school. As a freshman, he watched the football team crash to the bottom of the Pac 10. By the time he was a senior, he was in the stands for a National Championship. In between, he liked to argue points as a member of the Trojan Debate Squad. Nowadays, he's just looking to tell a good story. He is currently Sports Editor for LAist, where he covers a wide range of local action. He can also be seen weekly on KNBC 4's News Raw. Adam manages special events in the sports community when he isn't participating himself (he staggered through the LA Marathon and can often be found on local soccer fields). If you have a question about the Trojans or just want to give him a piece of your mind, email: adam@laist.com.
