t really is two issues


you could add in early games, seating position, ease of access to stadium seats from entrance(how long does it take to get in).


But like I stated before, schools dont care about it, students are least priority and rightfully so, they dont produce any revenue for the games

1. Stop scheduling garbage games

2. Stop requiring that student tickets be "transferred"



TV and beer are nonsense. We have had cable television for 40 years. No one was going to games because the TV reception wasn't in HD. Students have been sneaking alcohol into games since football began. Even if stadiums started selling beer you know it is going to be overpriced so students would still sneak alcohol in




The only reason I didn't mention schedule quality is because we all know there's maybe 10 teams that have the depth to actually survive a daunting schedule without many injuries. But it's true, most major programs don't have a problem getting students in the seats during conference play.

Personally I've been going to LSU games so long to the point I only go in for SEC games and OOC games against teams that at least have a notable brand (ex: Virginia Tech coming to DV)

Good thing they did a study to figure out what everyone already knew. I guess they're not fans, so they're still learning.

That's a fricking awful idea. I'll never forget some 45 year old dipshit snuck into the student section and sat behind me and started bitxhing saying I should t be standing. In the fricking student section.
