Had a SRO ticket for Game 2 of Supers. I passively stood at the top of section 205 (BLEACHERS) with no one 15 feet on either side of me. Some LSU fans were infuriated with my presence in their section, yelled profusely at me & had me removed. I am really confused...

I was gonna offer them a "good afternoon" and some peanuts, but couldn't even get that in before I was chastised.

We are all tiger fans! Why the animosity over little nothings? Going on a power trip over the excess unused standing area behind your cheap seats clearly illustrates your lack of character. It's hard to tell a 40 year old to grow up, but one can try.

I had SRO and moved to my buddy's section after the rain delay in 203 and there were people standing back there. I was also told people did this during the regional. So either the people that sit there suck or you did something stupid


Also, there was this older guy in their section that got so pissed that people were standing up late in the game of a game that booked our trip to Omaha

On this, I will agree with you. I have gold seats (I feel I've earned them, sat many years at the old Box in the sun on the metal bleachers from hell) and I've never cared if someone was sitting in unused seats around me. Or even if you're sitting in my seats, as long as there isn't an issue when it comes time to move (a problem I've never had). But I have seen a few people get all bent out of shape when they see someone sitting in a seat that isn't theirs. Actually saw two very-senior citizens get all up in each other's face over one guy that had moved over a few seats to talk with friends before the start of the game.

The only thing I can guess, and it is somewhat annoying at times, is when someone whom you find to be annoying is sitting near you (like a 12 year old kid kicking my seat, or a lady that has absolutely no knowledge of the game asking a nonstop slue of dumb questions) and you know that isn't where they are supposed to be. I take is all in stride though, and just enjoy the game.

Dude really was a prick for no reason. I can't stand all the people who go to the regionals and supers but don't attend any regular season games.

Hey tee_boi. Were you wearing a grey shirt yesterday in 205? I saw someone get booted off the top row before the game started in a grey tshirt.

You should've worn OU gear, he'd have probably offered you his seat, a refreshment, and a high five

It is apparently against the rules to stand behind seats in the bleacher sections of the Box unless you have a ticket for a top row seat. I have seen, on several occasions, Marshalls removing people from these areas in the past.

I sit in 205, there are assholes in every section. There is a guy that sits in front of me that shows up in the 2nd inning every game and gets mad that someone is in his seats. If he showed up on time this would never happen. At the same time, June is when all the band wagoners show up and everyone is trying to steal a seat. Being a regular, I see why people get pissy. Bottom line a sro ticket is a sro ticket and all seats are taken this time of year.

You need a ticket for the seat in front of you if you're going to stand at the top of the bleachers.

Sounds exactly like section 121. Ive had my uncles tix for multiple games, like 20+ and they still treat me like i dont "belong" to their section. All are 50+ and im in college. I guess thats why

Family of mine has seats in the 3rd base line covered area. (don't know section by heart) Occasionally they give us the tickets when they aren't able to make it to the games. People look at you like you've just walked in the back door of their house. Can't say they were mean, but those closest would question who you are, generally not minding of their own business.
