I think Yale posters are missing important points. Coach Reno has privately expressed concern that ancient Harvard bandbox limits Yale attendance, with only 10,000 seats allocated to Yale. Extra 5k seats at Fenway make a difference, at the margin. Long term solution: tear down the 120 yr old dump, and replace with a modern 40,000 seat Facility.

Author: Go Green [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 09:25:21 08/28/25 Thu Harvard announced last year that it's doing major renovations to its athletic facilities over the next 10 years. That includes Harvard Stadium. They expect to add seating.

Author: Recent Blue [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 09:37:57 08/28/25 Thu Surely Harvard isn't doing this to accommodate Reno, is it? Would Yale get more than half the extra tickets? Aside from satisfying 2500 more Yale fans and making them happy to be able to attend, isn't this a wash from Yale's perspective? And this assumes Yale gets half the extra seats, not less.

Author: Ivy wanna be [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 09:48:58 08/28/25 Thu Have The Game at the Yale Bowl. 21,000 more seats. Tickets don’t cost $100.00 a seat , better viewing. Have the game played in New Haven.
