re: Tailgate business folks taking over the right field sitting area

Say a group of students wanted to rope off a tent-sized area in the green space by the stadium and student center. Is that illegal if they beat the tailgate guys to it on Thursday, or whenever the start time is for setting up? Or does the university have some contract with them where the have “rights” to those areas? I’m just thinking if I’m a paying student, I should have just as much right to those prime areas as well. I’m seriously just asking out of curiosity because I have no idea and I know that area is usually only white tents. I’m also talking about football btw.

It sucks but you would be removed. Essentially the tailgate folks have a deal to lease areas on campus
