Stand up then.

In Philly Eagles stadium you must sit during plays. You risk bodily harm if you don't and I mean lots of bodily harm.

You also have to be quiet when the O is on the field and loud for the D. These rules are enforced.

Philly fans are also the epitome of trash and whats wrong with sports fans too....I will never forget Philly fans cheering as Irvin was being carted off the field...

I don't give a damn who it is behind me; I stand the whole game anyway.

Students with upper levels sneak in and sit with friends in the lower part

Who booed Santa Claus? Dead meat! His wife is not chunky eighter, she's Curvy.

Good change. We need the student section sold out and loud.

I'll never forget my freshman year in 2004 I got stopped on more than one occasion before or after games by older fans who thanked me and the student section for being so loud.

trolololol

Makes room for more affordable tickets for the general public

That and it'll be easier sell the idea of a sold out crowd of 102,455 when there isn't an obvious bald spot in the stadium.

Yes, and it still looks empty. I like the idea of getting them out of the upper deck. Next I think they should decrease the allotment.

Because Irvin was always a prick to Eagles fans? He's even said he understands why the cheered. Lol, more stereotypes I guess.

Those damm students at a COLLEGE football game. Who do they think they are? :crazy:

 

[gunner]

Id go up on tuition $100 per semester and let them in free.....but thats just me

What happen to the activities card? That's what we had back in the late 80's when I went to UT.

Charge everyone a flat activities fee, and the week of the game they can pickup their tickets.

Happens when the team sucks.

Get over it.

 

[BigSteve09]

this is purely a good thing!

 

[VolStudent5]

what about the students who don't wear orange or white!!!!!!!!!!!!?

no racism intended, but only black students do this.

There are plenty of pricks in the world, but if they suffer a severe neck injury...that at the time looks like it could very well be severe paralysis.....I'm not going to cheer about it.

We do get charged an activity fee...then we pay to go to football games, which makes no sense but you can't argue with the big orange screw.

Great news! If the school can get a good product on the field this could change the atmosphere of games. The student section is what drives the noise, so bringing them together and lower could make games at Neyland even better. I know I sure miss standing, yes standing, in the student section. I can't go to NFL games anymore because the atmosphere sucks

This has been needed for a long long long time!
