They are a bit... snug, as regards depth.

But I have to say, my back was glad it was there.

All around impression, though, is positive.

They make the giant O look good.

A quote they won't be using in the season ticket brochure.

At 6'4", I need a little leg room. I felt like I was in an airplane. The width was fine. I'm glad four of my seats have the backs, and for some reason, six of them do not. I'll sit in the other seats next game. I like the idea of adding nicer options for the season ticket holders.

I went over to sit in them pregame, and they were not comfortable - even for just 5 minutes. The consensus of several other friends with me is that they were just too small and tight with legroom. It was a good idea, but a poor choice on the actual seats that were installed.

Nippert Stadium has some great padded chairback seats.

The one thing I like about the seats is that they define your space so it's less likely that folks will sneak into a row and poach your space.  As 695 said though, they are a bit short on the thing support leg room.  Overall, the lower back support is a nice feature.  

I can't see the scoreboard clock.  Is the game over yet?

I think (regarding seat depth) that they're horribly constrained by the existing bleacher rise over run setup that's inherent to Peden.

The bleachers, themselves, really can't be moved one way or the other; you've got to leave room for people to walk past the seats, with people standing in front of them, without needing to empty the entire row.

All in all, I like it; works fine.

You would have thought they would have planned for "Fat Cats" sitting in the "Big Money" Section?
