This was my first time to the new stadium, and it is quite nice. The G'Town fans seemed fairly enthusiastic, but it's obviously still nothing like big-time basketball or football. The slightly curved benches in the stands are more comfortable than standard benches.

I see room for a few improvements. It was inexcusable to run out of water for fans on a hot day. It also takes a really long time to get into the stadium -- better signage for those with bags/no bags and an additional line would be great. Finally, G'Town needs to up its game for entertainment during the interminable media timeouts. There is no video screen, but lots of other forms of entertainment are possible -- cheerleader or pep band performance on the field, kids' competitions, etc.

FWIW, the games at my son's DIII school (Carleton) take a full hour less due to the lack of media timeouts. It's a huge difference, but that's obviously not Georgetown's fault.

My youngest and her friends always loved petting Jack the Bulldog at Hoya games.
