Tailgating was just nuts......and during the game, they still couldnt behave.What am I complaining about?Personally, I stayed in the RV to watch the game(and the nascar race) on both of my tv's. But everyone I was with, had to deal with all the CRAP that was going on inside the stadium.Half of my group left the game early because they ended up having to stand 3 DEEP in the 1st row of the student section. We have NEVER left early for ANY reason. Ever. People came down and not only squeezed em all together, but then tried to claim the seats as their own!From what I was told, if you tried to walk around the Pirate Ship, it was as if the game was over, because of all the people that were standing there, all game long, not paying attention to the game.Tailgating was interesting as well. A bunch of rookies for their 1st game.....not understanding the common courtesy that goes along with tailgating with each other. You give your fellow fan enough room so that you BOTH can have a good time. What you DONT do is park extra close and block each other in.Basically, what I'm saying is this:If you're going to be a Bulls football fan, be one. In fact, I welcome you to the next game. But dont show up for ONE game and act like you own the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you wanna hang out in the student section - that's what you're gonna get. As for "first timers"...unless you have a ticket assigning you to a given seat, that's what you're going to contend with. The North Endzone is a place to hang out, see and be seen... Don't like it? Spring for season tix in the "hand-me-the-check-book" section of the stadium.

Guest bullman33 Posted October 17, 2004 Share Posted October 17, 2004 RJS had one section of the upper deck ready to go if needed. I heard they had one side of the upper decked all taped off and gated to allow access to one of the sections up there. Obviously we didnt need it, but it shows everyone what the plan is with the upper decks at least. Once we continue to grow look for the middle section of the upper deck to open.

The thing is that many of the fans think too lowly of ARMY. What they dont realise that ARMY has a coach with two championship rings right now. I loved the feel of the crowed atmosphere in the endzone. It is starting to feel more like a college atmosphere IMO. The only downside to that is that you will have less space and get more annoyed by the other fans because of the limited space. I personally moved from where I was sitting last night because we had some fans whistling too loud in my ear all night. I was not mad because I just moved to a better seat. It is a football game, so the place is supposed to get pretty rowdy on Saturday nights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
