What is J Fred's approximate capacity with the new addition?

Around 4700 on the home side with the new seats. New deck is around 1100 but only ends up being an addition of 800 total seats because 300 existing seats on the bottom were eliminated because of the addition of 2 sets of stairs, railings on all stairs, and elimination of the old student stands. Not sure how many seats are on the visitor side but it is a joke because this is a dual purpose stadium (football/baseball) and half of the visitors side is the baseball outfield and so it can't have stands there. There is a ton of standing room though and in a pinch you could use the baseball stands with some binoculars! Biggest games will see 10,000+ but several thousand of those are walking around with nowhere to sit.

Yes it sucks for vistors to sit on metal bleachers ..

but most high schools have vistor metal bleachers.. i wish one day it will happen and the move will be made but doubtful !! But i dont care because this complex along with new scoreboard is just bad a**! I talked to a guy from georgia during funfest and he said when he was at taste of tri cities (across street from db ) that he thought the staduim wasnt that big at first then he walked inside to see concert and he was blown away for it to be a high school staduim .. but he did say baseball and football fields in same area was odd !! It is bigger than looks as in pictures !!
