I really don't think this is just another 'get off my lawn' reaction. I just don't think it's that simple.
I love the music, new and old, the drone show, etc. But a whole lot of that shit in between isn't really that appealing to the kids either. My 17 yo & 19 yo complain about it more than I do. They were talking before I was about the nonstop nature of it all and the crowd not getting a chance to just be a football crowd.
In other words, the usual couching of all of this as a young vs old conflict is missing the point. Would I want to go back to the way it was in '83 when I got to the 40? Hell no. The actual football aside, I'd be bored out of my mind, esp with that atmosphere and the crazy-long tv and other breaks we have now. But this has gone too far in the other direction, and I hear people of all ages talking about just wanting them to slow it down a tad, turn it down a tad, and give the crowd a little bit of a break.
Interesting post here from the game thread, by @JBJ, which imho sheds some light on it not just us old guys that don't like this shit:
