don't know if this is just a rumor but apparently the arena people would rather have the students up in the corner because they are easier "to control".....i personnally think that's a BS excuse....they should get the risers and sit the students down there if they want to sit there....i don't think the box office even sells those seats to anyone...they set those seats up for "show"....

Definitely, that would help us a lot and disrupt opponents, esp. for foul shots. The Arena police won't let anyone down there. It may also help energize the crowd more. The reason sec. 104-106 is so quiet is that they are mostly the geriatric crowd of loyal season ticket holders who were also quiet at Alumni Hall (seated on right side there). It may be their way of preventing heart attacks (just kidding).

FU is a small enough place there could be dialogue between the administration and the students around what is acceptable behavior and what is over the line if they are allowed to sit on the floor. And the Arena mgmt would have to accept the give and take to get to a situation acceptable to all yet still a bit raucous.

I am not hopeful though. Is a some sort of NCAA regulation or did someone just put the fear of God in Arena mgmt about the beer bracelets.
