Lower Level Endzone
- Endzone seats are not as close to the field as some of the seats in corner and sideline seating. Sections 14-16 will have a head-on view of the main scoreboard, while Sections 32-34 are above or next to the main player tunnel. Fans in Sections 31-35 will have to turn around to see the scoreboard.
