Isn't this against USG regulations... I'm gonna have to check with the Inspector General on this one. 03-shhhh

My work is the peasants. Gotta love 'em. Their lives are far more interesting than ours. 04-cheers

They told me that if they reserve a ticket and don't show up to the game, then they are "penalized" and lose priority for the next tickets. They said that they will always reserve tickets so they can go in and that if they decide they don't want to go, they will go to the gate to have their ticket scanned so it shows that they were there and they don't get penalized for the next tickets. So I think this is the "system" that is in place to prevent students from reserving tickets and not showing up. The problem is they can turn around and walk right out. I can tell you that for every game this year, they were all still partying when we left our tailgate for the game and every game they were completely gone by the time we got out to our car. The football game is mostly a social time for them.

DISCLAIMER: I wasn't exactly sober when they were telling me about the reservation process and it was a few week ago, so some details might not be 100% correct, but I just wanted to share what they said. Maybe a current student could clarify.

That is true. As students, if we reserve tickets and don't use them 2 times we lose the right to "ability to access student tickets for the remainder of the season". I don't know if that means just football (most likely) or all sports. We can cancel our reservations if we want by contacting the ticket office so it should never be a problem.

As far as the lines I have been to every game accept St. Francis and I have yet to wait in a line longer then 5-10 minutes but then again I am usually in the stadium at least 30-45 minutes prior to kick.

I saw Coach's interview and I agree 100% with him. Obviously we had more then 500 students in the stands and I emailed him to tell him that. Those of us that were there did our best to be loud, I still barely have a voice. I don't really know how to fix the problem other then time and winning. The most common thing I hear on campus among students is "our team sucks" (B.S. no losing seasons since 2003) and "the games are boring". Maybe some of you on the boards with better marketing minds and more pull then me can help with ideas.

Student line is a two-fold issue and he hit a major point.

Issue 1 and was solved after game 1 ---- issue with scanners on JMUs end --- i think that has been addressed b/c I have not seen a line anywhere like that one for the first home game.

Issue 2 -- well over 75% of the students wait until 5 minutes before kickoff and bombard the gate --- that one is on them.
