Deliberately empty seats?

Plans for Texas A&M’s Kyle Field have been amended to increase seating from 94,000 to 102,500. New plans also include adding canopies to the east and west upper decks and a special “12th Man” section that will remain empty on the second deck of the east stand to represent “the burning desire to serve.”

A&M is a weird school.

Everything they do has to be some sort of tradition.

I like traditions in theory, but that is some more strange symbolism.

Represents the 12 kids that died in bonfire. How fricking "weird", right?

I can't imagine a campus tour of Texas A&M. It must be exhausting.

Tradition of empty sections during games?

That article is wrong, the 12 empty seats are in memory of the 12 kids who died when the bonfire collapsed in '99.

Kind of a sick and demented joke if they call it a burning desire to serve.

The burning desire to serve? Sounds like the will to serve as a soldier.

Yeah, still kinda fricking weird.
And the article says it represents the "burning desire to serve".

Wonder how many games it will take until opposing fans try to sit there?

Also, we are expanding from 82,000 seats, not 94,000. That article is all kinds of wrong.

So...who called it burning desire to serve? Pretty poor choice of words.

I know I can count on some LSU shitheads to try it and get their asses kicked.
