New Rose Bowl Not a Good Fit

The Bruins looked sharp Saturday against Texas. Too bad the leg room for the new Rose Bowl seating was designed to the ergonomic size of Pee-wee Herman. I guess Pete Dalis didn’t take time to try out the seats with a big guy sitting on either side of him. At least we get to stand up after each touchdown scored, which should be often this season!

Anyone who hung on to the hope that the Rose Bowl might somehow be the next venue of a pro football team can throw that dream aside. The new individual seats must have been designed by some contortionist, or at least someone under 5-9. Heaven help your row should someone need to leave their seat during a game.

Those new “theater-type” seats at the Rose Bowl are designed only for short people. The aisles are so narrow that one’s knees are pushed into the back of the seat in front. A complete waste of money. They make economy-class seats on airlines seem like heaven.

These seats must have been designed by engineers who graduated from USC trying to sabotage the spirit of UCLA fans. Bring back the old bench seats.
