I don't think we currently do beer at basketball, but I think we do at football (which obviously doesn't affect this project). If they were floor level I'd picture a basketball version of what Louisville did when they enclosed the open end of their football stadium if you've ever seen that. It's not a great vantage point...it's more about the experience.
Supposedly new coaches' offices will overlook the floor from above.
To confirm, we do at football games.

RE: New and upgrading facilities in the ASun
It’s is always exciting to see what’s to come especially if those involved are innovative.
I’m very excited to see what the renovations to our stadium will look like it’s supposed to be more fan friendly. Hopefully very innovative and forward thinking. But I doubt it’s a good as your imagination can come up with.

Work starting on Alumni Coliseum/Baptist Health Arena renovation.
Some new renderings. Appears to be where the wall is now.
