Our group (Section 125, 1at and 2nd row) were the ones who had a big issue during the Elon game where a number of our group was asked to leave the stadium and the reason they were given was "standing".

Are you for real?  Um...  I don't think we are fast on our way to having a legendary home atmosphere with that kind of crap going on. 

I am glad nothing happened in the UNC game and hopefully the fun police won't come and lay the smack down in the WVU game.

meh, if you wanna stand, then go ahead. if you wanna sit, go ahead. just don't mess up someone else's good time.

me? i'll be sitting on my couch, watching the game on a very big TV. and the fridge is just a few feet away. and all the lovely beer contained within! the bathroom is also but a few feet away. and...it's free! hooray!

I so miss being a student although I remember just a few years back there were people in the student section complaining "sit down in front"- usually was a parent companion of a student.  Thankfully the student section has exploded since I was a student and now they stand all game.  Now I have season tix in section 103 on the other side of the opponent tunnel from the student section, a couple rows from the field and I am being told to sit down for most of the times I got up.  My section only stood on the defensive stand to start the 4th and a couple other times this past game.  At least I was able to stand freely when the line of scrimmage was mid-field or south due to line of sight.

IMHO we should all stand for college games to support our team as they work hard and for almost nothing, as opposed to pro games.

We each have our own way of enjoying life...God Bless  :USFflag

but you don't know what you're missing

"I firmly believe all those not going to the games for what ever reason, today, will be begging for a ticket, tomorrow."

I have a dream...

I am an old guy (hence the nickname). I have attended many FSU games (my Daughter went there). I stood the entire game. Here, I stand on big defensive plays and when the people in front of me stand. It's no big deal. If it's a big offensive play I usually jump up when it begins to break loose. If the people behind me don't like it sorry...It's football! Maybe they should stand & get some excercise! Geez!

With all that being said. The thugs (security) at the stadium are JERKS!. In the parking lot (6-D) the security made two kids put up their football. They said "no throwing objects anywhere on sports authority property. That may explain the lack of passing in the second half! (I digress)  When my wife questioned the "ball police" they said "Try to throw something lady!" OOOOHHHHH! Tough Guys.

Later, in the game the "Airborne Object Police" confiscated a beach ball from a three year old. She cried! Well, she also cried when everybody yelled when we scored, when the cotton candy guy ignored her, when I made any ugly face... but you get the picture.

Anyway....Time for an OCS! Screw the Glazers, Screw the "Politically connected" Sports Authority & the rest of this bribe taking County Commission & City Council! It's OUR HOUSE! (Well , It should be!)

**** that felt good!
