Does the school hosting the Playoff Game get a percentage of the ticket sales, a straight sum of money, or just concession stand profits?

They charge a rental fee and get the concessions. Gate is distributed to UIL and the two teams participating.

Host school gets parking also...I think the gate got 15% to UIL...officials cut then the teams split whats left

going to burst everyone's bubble that keep throwing in local stadiums(butch,lamar,pn-g,PAM) these might be okay stadiums for 1st rd only,unless there is a home and home flip. the location of where teams have to come from to play is not ideal for teams coming from houston area. the triangle is just a bad spot for playoffs games(pop warner is okay). 1st rd yes. otherwise stallworth and head west for venues after round 1.

Who still charges for parking? Pasadena used to, but I have not been there in a while.

In 2010 we palyed our 1st and 2nd round at the Butch...it worked out..but I agree..when you start getting deeper..a stadium with a larger capacity is needed.

Pretty much every stadium in DFW charges for parking in the playoffs, I know Tyler charges, Midland and Odessa charge, Waco charges, Heroes in San Antonio charges also honestly its been a long time since I've been to a playoff game at a venue that didn't charge for parking its a good way for the host school to make a little extra revenue

It would be one of the only times Lamar could fill the stands

I miss the old Astrodome and Rice Stadium days......early rounds you could pay $5 and watch 4 games......good times
[/quote]

Hopefully that is coming back with the new turf at Reliant although the price will be a bit higher now-a-days.  Can't wait!

[/quote]I agree with this too. First round games between 19 and 20-4a don't have any neutral sights. The Butch is about 75 miles from most 19-4a schools and Lamar is even further. I think the best spectator/most neutral venues are:

1. Memorial Stadium (Pasadena) 16k +
2. Stallworth Stadium (Baytown) 16k +
3. GPISD Stadium (North Shore) 10k +
4. Berry Center (Cypress) 10k +
5. Memorial Stadium (Channelview) 8k +

Turner Stadium (Humble) 10k + and the Berry Center are great venues to play the teams from the norther part of the region in.

Channelview?  Only holds 8K.  What is the capacity at BH or Dayton?  Just curious
[/quote]Channelview can probably get 10k in there, just like Stallworth can probably fit about 18 or 19k. Those are just listed figures I put up. I know when we played in BH last year the attendance was about 7k total and I didn't have room to open my legs on the visitor side. Dayton can probably hold 8k + but the visitor's side can get tight, home side looks like it will hold 6k by itself. BH and Dayton are good neutral playoff sights for 3a and under games.

Not if the schools get the same reception from Lamar U as they did last year.  Vidor and Crosby put more folks in that stadium than the main tenant usually does only to have all of 1 concession stand open to the public.
[/quote]

They corrected that problem for the Nederland Game. If you play there someone needs to make sure Chartwells  has enough concession stands open. I am sure they are use to Lamar playing on Saturday with no one in the stands...

1. Galena Park ISD
2. Beaumont ISD
3. Turner (Humble ISD) Nicely upgraded.
4. Stallworth

If Lamar would be more accomodating, then yes.
Would PN-G allow the Reservation to be used?
I could see Bronco Stadium and Barbers Hill's stadium being used for a neutral site - especially 3A.
[/quote]

PN-G Visitor's side isn't big enough..
[/quote]

It is bigger than Dayton's visitor side.

I like Morrehead Stadium (Conroe) 8,500 and Woodforest Bank Stadium (Shenandoah) 9,600 also.

[/quote]I think Woodforest and Morrehead Stadium are region II stadiums.
