Wednesday morning.



How many tickets have been sold?

 

[Red_Alert]

I got 4 when they first went on sale Feb 3rd.

Nice to get outside in April for the day. Why not go watch a scrimmage.

There is no such thing as reserved seating in Memorial Stadium. I am no fat ass but the spaces you get to sit on "your number" is too damn small. I love going to games there and every chance I get I will still go but the seating there sucks.

I had 'reserved seating' last year and I have it again this year. The size of your seat does not negate the fact it is a 'reserved seat'. One cannot go to another row or another section and park their ass on someone elses assigned number. I and my family have never had a problem putting our fannys on the number stamped on the bleacher that corresponds to the number stamped on our tickets. It's not movie theater comfort. It's a football stadium.
The 'completely pointless glorified scrimmage' is something every university does. It gives players and coaches experience in game management. They can critique the film and see where they can improve in substitutions, clock management etc..Opening it up for the fans raises funds for the athletic department. It costs a mere 10 bucks. It is an affordable way of giving my kids the opportunity to experience a gamelike atmosphere and gives us the opportunity to spend some time together in an outdoor setting after being cooped up all winter. There are far more family friendly things to do down there on top of the 'completely pointless glorified scrimmage' going on inside the stadium. There are pavillions, bands, food, face-painting, autograph sessions and countless other family friendly activities. The Red-White game is a win-win for the university, coaches, players, and fans alike.

^ Rep point. plus i like to see the team play, and everyone who goes knows it's not a real game, so I don't really understand the argument against it.

The only time I had any problem sitting in my seat was this years K-state game, and I have made it to atleast 3 games a year the past 10 years..... I had seats 1 and 2....... And there was someone sitting in seat two that had tickets for seat 3, about 5 people squeezed down as much as they could but could not get the whole row to do the same, and I suspect that there was either someone really really fat in the row, or someone who didn't have a ticket to be there.... After the 5 people sat down and my friend sat down I had about 7 inches of bench to sit on.... I ended up sitting on the stairs most of the game....

 

[husker_grl]

people sit during the games? lol jk.. well in the student section we stand on the seats, the whole game and squeeze way more people on a bench than there are reserved seats for.. its really fun...

Yeah, I've had it since 2000 over at disney....... I used to here so everyone would know who I am.....
