That's one thing that Auburn got right (at least for TV) is having the student section on the floor. The rest of the stadium is empty, but all you can see is the mostly packed in student section. It at least looks good for tv.

Yeah that's what the powers that be were saying they were gonna do with our new arena when it was planned and being built. The sell job was not just a sparkling new arena but that it would be "Cameron Indoor West" with the students all ringed around the court and be a great intimidating environment.

The outcome was pretty much the complete opposite of that, with students shoved into one corner behind one of the goal lines and the lower seats in the other three corners given out to all the fat cats as discussed above.
