first off, the standing in line....as inconvenient as it is, is part of the collegiate experience, online lottery? yeah right.

I had some great times at really bad games in my day....fond memories of those days rarely involve the game itself...the kids have to want to go...and have the opportunity to really enjoy the day (not just the game)...thats how the stands get filled.

Having a coach say he "expects" the students to do their part....makes it more of an obligation, rather than their being a part of something much bigger.
