I didn’t say the students don’t deserve to be there

But let’s face reality here, the students aren’t at that football game unless people such as me are buying season tickets, donating to the athletic department, donating to NIL to field a competitive team etc.

That 75k they pay is going for their ACADEMICS and doesn’t go to the football team. So the small amount they pay for seasons doesn’t equate out to much.

So yeah, it burns me that I lost my seats I had for years and donated money to have for years to watch students, in competitive games such as Stanford, not show up to them and then leave before halftime and leave my old seats completely empty.

I love when the students are there and IF they stayed the whole time I wouldn’t complain. Because as you say, the university doesn’t exist without the students.

We are all a symbiotic relationship.

University doesn’t exist without the students. The athletics department doesn’t exist without the university being there and the fans that are donating money to watch the team.

I also think when you reduce the amount of seats in the dome and then expand the student section by a significant amount it causes this tension. If they didn’t expand the student section, I wouldn’t have lost my seats.

Anyway, it’s not important really

Just keep winning
