I have been to the Yum! and I honestly think we can do better.
I have a lot of faith that these new owners will do it right. I think that is why they have been pushing for a $500 mil facility, and when the going looked to be getting rough didn't back down to a lesser version. I just hope there is something unique in the stadium that makes it a little different.
Populous is also designing the new Tottenham Hotspur stadium in north London. They are designing it to have a second, retractable field that will be used solely for 2 NFL games annually. Yeah, these guys seem to know what they're doing in stadium design. #COYS

Goo mentioned a bar in the cheap seats. Cincinnati has that. It has tables that face the court, can't remember if they were windows or open air, but it was a nice set up. When it comes to the Yum Center, very nice but agree, there can always be improvements. One thing I would like to see in Louisville is the "10th Street Live" or whatever it is. There is a bar area that has the street permanently blocked off with an awning/roof over it where there is live music every weekend. That would be great right next to the stadium.
