SD: I seem to remember some complaints about bad sight lines in PGE Park. Is that right?

I've never been there, but if the sight lines are good enough for MLS they should be good enough for FCS.

Providence Park has a capacity of 25K, having high enough attendance for people to experience bad sight lines would be a good problem for PSU.

There were. The Timbers have gone to great lengths to reduce them, however. There still are some but not as many.
