I think I have missed maybe 6 home games since this stadium opened. The stadium itself is very nice but man does it have its flaws. Two of the biggest to me are:

I sit in section 211. The thing about this section is it is all the way in the corner of the 2nd level. Small bathrooms, small food stands, small and more small. The only thing that is big on this side of the stadium are the lines. I don’t drink beer at games becasue I will piss myself waiting in those lines.

The concessions are your typical pretzel, hot dog, pizza. That’s it. Apparently all the nuns and nicey nice people that hang out at Citizens Bank Park watching the cuddly Phillies get all the good food. You have to walk down a bit to get to some sausage and peppers but that’s as far as I have traveled during game time. The super crazy fast “PayPass” that the Eagles are always promoting during the games never works. In the last 3 seasons I think its worked 3 times plus the people behind the register are always one minute away from getting slapped. The job is not that hard.

I could go on, but whats the point. I will go to eagles games and the Linc as long as I can possibly walk, but compared to other stadiums in cities like Pittsburgh, DC, Seattle, Minneapolis its lacking by bunches.
