I don't think the seating capacity hurts LBSU bid to host in the future. I mean so far I am sure the NCAA is thrilled with 19 and 24 attendance wise. Plus on the "growing the sport" aspect in many ways it is better to have a full Mid compared to a half full Pauly Pavilion. It looks more impressive on tv and many casual fans will only watch the finals and not a single other second of college men's volleyball during the year.
No reentry. I get that is annoying. I get a stamp seems like a simple solution. And yes like you said that might have actually increased attendance for both games as people could take a break between the games. At the very least they could have roped off a section outside (ie maybe just the area right outside the exit doors but before you walk down the stairs) so people could at least get some fresh air.
PA- year I liked the guy we had 10 years ago better. The "hype" up the crowd guy might work better in NBA games or heck even college games when there are a lot more students there (really wasn't that many students today as I sure the NCAA want's the most money possible) but was pretty terrible yesterday.
food- yes it is crazy we would run out. I mean unless the NCAA keeps all that profit also lol. But assuming that is not the case there is no reason to run out. The second LBSU was a lock to make the tourney everyone knew the attendance would be pretty good.
