Look at the You See Effers... they encourage their fans to jump around during Zombie Nation.Sherriff, you are the one person that has proposed a reasonable alternative to this nonsense. Athletics should jump on this right away and send notices to everyone in the south endzone about swapping seats.

I'm looking forward to getting seats down there next year. Hopefuly the whole south endzone can just be crazy, loud alum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get as crasy as I want in every section I've ever sat in. Seems these sections are targeted. It's a college football game and each should understand that others enjoy the game a different way.Don't understand the standing part, unless it's all game long. Are there "bad words" being thrown around ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was the one in row D I think. But the old fart (maybe 60 or 65) was in row S or T. He sits 2 rows in front of me and I'm in row H so it must be row F. Also he is in 126, not 125. I'm sorry to all you guess that got hasselled, it was uncalled for, especially when you werent even blocking the field of view at all (at least to me, and 2 rows wont make that big a differnce.) I tried helping with your cause yelling as loud as I could and trying to get the crowd up when the cops were down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the only way this thing is gonna get addressed is, someone gets kicked out, hires an attorney, and gets a petition going and clear up the legal wording on when people can stand. The way I see it is, if some middle school teacher can gets that pat down rule at ray jay overturned, Why can't we get the right to stand and watch the game in the seats we paid for?

TB Bulls Posted August 31, 2008 Group: Member Topic Count: 0 Content Count: 883 Reputation: 0 Days Won: 0 Joined: 01/17/2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 I already want to move out of my section after just one game. Last year we could stand as much as we wanted, but last night people were ******** and even throwing stuff at us. I couldn't believe it. I love my seats, but the people around us suck. I'd be willing to move to the endzone just so I can stand as much as I want. This would be a sacrifice on our part because we have sideline seats now and lets face it, those are better than endzone. Nevertheless, I would rather sit with you guys and stand and be loud then stay in the mausoleum and anger all the old folks. Hell, I'm not even that young myself, but these people killed it for me last night. I'm disgusted about the whole thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
