What the hell is wrong with the GA Administration? When I went to GA any student who wanted to go could go to a football game. So you went to the first home game in your freshman year and were hooked. Then everyone kept coming no matter how bad it was because it was what everyone did on Saturday. All the student organizations would sit together in their respective groups and no one was excluded. College is for the students and not anyone else. The students were the only ones making noise and cheering for the team. Hell I sat in the President's box once and I thought I was at a funeral. I do not get these guys.

I had the misfortune of starting in 2000 when they had a huge shortage of student tickets. Freshmen were in a lottery and I along with several friends didn't get them. Ended up having to get from friends or buy my own.

The last few years though, have seen very poor attendance from students. This move is probably for the best. Big issue across NCAA football programs right now is attracting the younger alumni. They are trying a creative approach. I dig it.
