I know there's no way around this but it is kind of weird being in the APC this year surrounded by the coach's cars. Every spot was filled with a car except women's gymnastics ironically. Coach Pike has a nice Maybach. I'll be more concerned with the cars out in the open then with people walking through the building.
Nope! Same old walk around the building. Drives me nuts looking through the door and seeing the parking deck door with a person sitting at the desk reading a book while everyone is walking around the building. Once again , it is not that the walking around , it is why?
the parking deck is a joke. I get it was part of the pork from the state required to get the APC but honestly it's a debacle.
To quote Abraham Lincoln … "We're closer to where we should be than we are."
It's never a good look to give fans something and then take it away. I use the APC and I gotta say, it was real nice being able to cut through to get to the lot last season. @BKIn118 is right that it's not the end of the world. But they should have found a way to make it work.
Incredibly poorly designed to build the deck that way.
The fact we dont have a real AD should be concerning
Dont get that at all...why wouldnt there be an access hallway or path built for attendees that leads directly out to the RAC
Designed by Perkins Eastman, if I have my facts straight. Perkins Eastman, whose slogan is “Human By Design”, take a bow.
There is an access that leads directly to the RAC. RU admin just won't let it be used.
I got bumped to yellow this year, though, so not my problem this season.
Hopefully, the kind woman who manned the doors last season is just on vacation and will return soon and allow fans to cut through the building. Maybe wishful thinking on my part, but every minute counts to get to the seats before tipoff.
The other design aspect of that center that I question is why the team store does not have an outside door. So when the APC is closed, the team store can still be in operation before events at JMA are in session and open to the public.
Just got a call from a nice guy from the ticket office that was in todays meeting about issues and this one came up. Don't hold your breath, nothing is going to change "let them eat cake". Tried explaining the craziness of this but his answer was "things have changed".
I did say please let the powers to be know I used to have 16 football seats , down to six because of the constant decisions that go against the long time ticket holders. I also rattled of for 20 minutes he was nice enough to listen but nothing will change.
The last thing I said to him I clicked on the NIL group to add more to my monthly donation, I then said to myself, screw it.

There is a door that looks directly at the RAC that fans can't use. If you mean some sort of tunnel/hallway connecting the two buildings (or making them a single structure), I agree that doesn't exist.
Amazing to me that they built the APC without a closed walkway between the RAC and the building for the players. Would keep them separate from the fan area
It's worth the trip to go to Scarlet Fever instead. Yes it's convenient. But the pricing in the team store is VERY expensive.
Talking to a ticket office rep might make you feel better, but it's like telling a ticket taker at Met Life to tell Woody Johnson how he's killing the Jets. Not the audience you need to be reaching.
SMH ....He is the head of the ticketing department and was asked to respond to me from the AD office. I sent multiple emails to the AD and staff and they had leadership meeting yesterday and my emails came up , as I would think any one else's email that went to them to complain. I do wonder how many people that want to see a change actually sent in emails.
Innocent question … Are there still waiting lists for season tickets for the Jets and Giants?
Thanks for clarifying. There is no reason why a covered walkway can’t be added.
The fact that the last 3 were fired or forced out under a cloud of controversy or misdeeds is more concerning.
The acting AD himself could have called. Shame he did not, but not surprised.
I do wonder, how many people that are affected by this have actually sent emails to the AD's office. The more the better when it comes to getting something done.
Please see emails addresses below.

Agree. I feel really bad for the reps. They were asked to deliver really crappy news about something that was poorly handled by people at a higher pay grade who should have more accountability. My rep is great - it wasn't her fault.
Haha
What happened to the good ole' days of getting fired for being shitty at your job?
Well JH was shitty at her job and hired for all the wrong reasons. Speaks volumes that she does not have a job in athletics.
But her partner is still a dean at Rutgers.
