The University of Michigan will remove nearly four dozen seats from Michigan Stadium before this fall to create a larger entrance into to the Lloyd Carr Tunnel.
U-M athletics spokesman Kurt Svoboda told the Free Press the decision was made as "a direct result of a thorough safety review that occurred following the season."
In total, 45 seats will be taken out of the movable stantion that is brought onto the field for football games. Those season ticket holders have already been contacted by the university to accommodate them in another way, but there will not be a "domino affect" from the seats being removed, according to Svoboda.
