Confirmed with Link: PNC Getting New 4,000 sq. ft Daktronics Scoreboard in 2019

Yeah and I can see how it could potentially be very cool for concerts too.

Basically this is mostly about NHL game presentation being too corny to use the best tools effectively.

It's not just a matter of corny, it's a matter of whether people come to games to watch the scoreboard or to watch the hockey game. I'm there to look at players on the ice. The scoreboard is not something I care that much about. Best case is that it plays highlights and neat video content during commercial and period breaks in high enough quality, otherwise I'm looking at my phone or talking to whoever I came with. Or peeing, or buying a beer. At a fundamental level, I am not there to watch a video screen. Have a good video screen to do the stuff it needs to do, but I don't need or want a video board to tell me to please clap, pretty please, the team sucks tonight. Doesn't matter how hip your video team is or how many moving parts the jumbotron has, I'm there to watch what happens on the sheet of ice.

Check out what the Golden State Warriors put in their new building. Too bad for the fans sitting in the end zones that won't be seeing replays but rather one large glaring stat-board.

Honestly, if you can still get a decent idea of the replays from the smaller screen, that would be really handy info.

That is just entirely too much and too busy...I want a scoreboard to show the score, 1-2 key stats, and the game

Wow, they really went to the opposite extreme from Golden State. Just a big black rectangle.

Our moniker for next season should be "Resistance is Futile"

 

[Svechhammer]

I like it. They should hang it just like that for the season

 

[CandyCanes]

Not going to lie. While this new jumbotron isn't the most expensive and have the latest and greatest (comparing to the Hawks & Flyers). The design of the new board does look really sleek and simple, I'm a fan of it even though it hasn't been turned on yet.

 

[Svechhammer]

If I cant tell what the players had for lunch via the clarity of an enormous image on the scoreboard allowing me to smell their breath, the video quality sucks!

Wrong sci-fi franchise.

 

[tarheelhockey]

Wrong sci-fi franchise.

At some point we will get a super-franchise where the bad guys put the cube inside the sphere.

 

[Svechhammer]

Wrong sci-fi franchise.

Son of a bitch! And I prefer Trek over Wars, too!

But, if you're going to go with BC (and another son of a bitch, it fits with the franchise. SHIT!)... You have to go with an advanced one....

And... I think from now on I'm going to call the new scoreboard the Borg Cube.

 

[MinJaBen]

Wrong sci-fi franchise.

Yep.

 

[Svechhammer]

Raleigh is the Borg Unicomplex
PNC Arena is the Borg Sphere
The scoreboard is the Borg Cube

We are the Collective

Resistance is Futile

 

[garnetpalmetto]

That's been done (sorta), THH (sphere inside of the cube)



Start at around 4:00 and the Sphere shows up at 4:11 or so.

Nino halfway through the season last year when he was traded....

 

[MinJaBen]

The new board with stuff on it...

You don't check a thread all day and then you get to it only to find it's chock damn full of Star Trek memes

My tickets in Section 319 now say "Limited View" and this concerns me. This is for the top row of 319 and Row G.

I bought Saints season tickets in 2002 for $150 (for the whole season!) and it said that, and the first game I went to, when I got to my seat, it was behind a 3 foot wide concrete pillar.

Where does it say that? In your account manager?

 

[the halleJOKEL]

mine also say these words

if you look at the ticket details for one of your tickets, it lists it there. mine were obstructed view anyway because of a glass partition/railing, so not sure if it always said this or not

 

[Primetime8]

Where does it say that? In your account manager?

When I look at the mobile tickets inside the app. It also says it when I display the barcode for the ticket.
