Our section stood for every defensive series. We probably only sat for two or three offensive series and some of the 2 min warnings.

This is just my practice; not telling anyone else what to do. Out of courtesy to those behind (which includes a kid typically) I sit so long as I can see doing do. I figure I can yell and clap just as loud seated. but if people in front of me stand, then I do, as well.

We sat during the offensive series and stood during the defensive series.

Still got a lot of looks from a lot of people in 128 that were just sitting there. Lots of elders too. I was like frick it and waved the shite out of my towel and yelled my arse off

Our section stood for the most part but we are under the overhang area in the 100s so if people want to sit they can watch the tv right above them

Don’t think anyone will have issues with standing if we end up at home for NFCCG

Dubious, abdominal muscle activity is reduced while sitting when greater respiratory effort is required.

For proper etiquette, the first question you ask is are you a season ticket holder?

If yes, then you should know the people in your section and their tendencies.

If no, then you should go with the flow of the section.

I stand if people in front of me stand. I can cheer and make just as much as anyone standing while sitting. I am tall so I don't stand and obstruct the view of those behind me who won't be able to look over me even if they stand.But being polite and not be a narcissist is how I was raised.

I'd stand more often, but I sit in consideration for the people behind me. If it's a big third down, I stand when the people in front of me stand. I can be loud sitting or standing.

The worst is when we are on offense and some dumb arse jumps up in front of me while Drew's pass is still in the air and I don't get to see the catch.

if you aren't ready to stand all game, get club seats (might work) or find a way to watch in a suite.

I once had a guy behind me in TS tell me to sit down during the home opener while the team was running out on the field to start the game
