VT fans travel well.

Both fan bases travel really well. That will be cool, although, extremely expensive to accomplish.

160,000 tickets = a lot of scratch!

I guess this was done before, way back in the day:

Something tells me 160,000 people buying tickets and concessions may cover it

not to mention comercials and local money , being in bristol you know espn will have their grubby paws all over it

Also, the 160,000 seats is the capacity for races. If they do something cool like add seats on the track surface, they could probably get 200,000+ spectators.

For a size comparison, Neyland Stadium, if it was put inside Bristol Raceway:

It would be nice if Tennessee was a little better by then. There has been talk of these 2 doing this for a long time

Stupid idea 160 thousand crappy seats , as bad as the NCAA puting the final four in a dome .

Agree, been to Bristol, made a delivery there at the stadium when i was still over the road, Seats will be so far from the field that no one will be able to see the game. They will have to install many jumbo trons around the track that you may as well just stay home and watch the game, will be the same thing.

Yes playing in front of 45k in a tiny stadium is much cooler


:biglol @ you butthurt ducks. Didn't even mean to say fucks

Well it's really 57k but who cares we beat the shit out of UT at Neyland and at Autzen . :ROFL2

[billys_back]

Here is what it will look like, no way would i pay to see it, every seat will be a nose bleed seat.

[FSUseminoles91]

It is a cool idea, but I agree that it's not really practical. Seats are going to suck ass. I'd say most people who go are mainly going just to be a part of something significant/different. I wouldn't be opposed to going, but I imagine tickets will be outrageous.
