Pan Am Center seating reduced at New Mexico State
State fire inspector orders occupancy limited to 7,650 at the Pan Am Center, though the building lists 13,322 capacity. The issue stems from exit-lack and a ramp with more than 12 percent slope affecting fire exits. Officials say events already scheduled may exceed the new limit, but authorities emphasize compliance with safety codes.
