What's your point? Yes the students are paying for their seats, but why not reward the people who have been supporting the program for many years? Students, while they do support the university, are more of a short-term fan than people who are buying season tickets. Given how difficult it is for anyone to get tickets, most of these people have probably suported the university for many, many years. If the students really want to attend the game, then they will sit wherever they can. As for the random fans, aren't we always asking for more support from the city of Denton? These people are just doing what we have always asked from our local residents. If they can afford the tickets and the likely donation that usually comes along with high demand tickets, then who cares whether they have a degree from the school? We should be lucky enough to have this problem.
