First off i sit at the field level and am now going to pay the same as people two rows up who can see the whole field but my view is blocked by the football team. Should they go use the benches they have and only stand when they go into the game. Would love to see the University push that policy.

I dont mind people standing in front of me when bigs plays occur...I do the same and dont mind standing for long periods of time..got no problem with that....BUT...its not necessary to stand the whole game...thats why they have fukin seats....usually I ask nicely for folks to sit down when nothing is going on.....most of the time people are courteous...when they are not...they need to be treated with the same disrespect....and yeah..internet badazz alert!

This should be very interesting this season because for the first time in 5 years I will not be in the student section. I wonder how the section I will be sitting in will act.
I personally like standing but I don't understand people saying that you can't make noise if you are sitting. Do your lungs not fill to capacity and that prevents your voice for getting as loud as possible? Can someone explain it to me. I think I can yell just as loud sitting, laying down, squatting as I can when I am standing. You realize the opposing team is not looking to see if the fans are standing up but are only affected by the noise we make.

If 92,599 fans are standing...don't expect the guy in front of you to sit down so you can see. Maybe you should think about STANDING UP.

Have you looked into the auto policy from AARP for older drivers like you

frick that. if someone cant see behind me b/c im standing up.... YOU frickING STAND. with as much as tickets are going for these days, i will pick when and for how long i stand. dont like it? then dont buy a ticket and watch from home. this isnt the opera or ballet, its a football game. if you want to sit, thats fine by me, just dont bitch when i stand



Perfect answer!! When I get to old to stand and yell, that's when it's time to stay home and watch from my death bed.

Wow, Doc is making sense.

It's a bad rule. Give the marshals an inch and they'll take a mile. This policy allows them to have the law on their side to cater to every complainer in the stands.

Isn't that what the policy states? If eveyone is standing then it's ok. But if everyone else is sitting down and your the only person standing then it's not ok.

Just b/c you have a ticket it doesn't make you special and you can't do whatever the hell you want. These people act like "it's all about me, me me me me me". There are thousands of other people in the stands who are excited about the game who want to watch it without having to deal with the moron up front who wants to stand all the time.
