Good luck with all of that. The main issue (as my limited brain sees it) is that a large part of season tickets were scooped up by bandwagon fans and other organzitations when things started getting hot. That and the entire lower west is past retirement age and goes becuase that is all they have ever done. WE need those that want and can be there to be there...if you get those types.... they'll represent...sorry if I have offended any group or class.

Very true. I sat in the lower West two years ago and was miserable. Nothing but blue hairs and high school kids that got their tickets from daddy's work. No one was in to the game at all.

Everybody needs to get their panities out of the wad and relax a little. I'm a season ticket holder in the lower west side and the only boo birds there are the 20-somethings who are roaring drunk or swaping spit with their girlfriends and could care less what he score is...People have a right to boo. It's stupid but so are the drunks who show up and can't remember the score the next day. BTW, I'm 65 and nobody can out-yell me where my Tigahs are concerned. Semper Fi.

Yep. I also think that the Cluster Jam that is Traffic off of campus plays a large part in the mass exodus. But, Why even come to the event if you are so hell bent on leaving in the first place? I mean really, leaving with 18 minutes left on the clock?
