🏈 Could you imagine this in a college stadium?

A fan - 25 year season ticket holder- kicked out of the stadium for standing too much!

Stipe, a ticket holder of 25 years, was told by security personnel to sit during the first quarter of Sunday's game when he was standing during a third down. Later in the game, he was standing again and was asked to leave his seat due to a new rule that immediately boots second-offenders.

I would be upset after spending the money for the ticket and you get booted out for a Barney Fife infraction.

He seems like he is contradicting himself in this article. He sits when people ask him to sit, but he doesn't want to look like lumps on a log.

Putting myself in others shoes... I'd hate to be forced to stand because I was sitting behind him - I mean, hell I want to watch the game too - without having to stand the entire game.

Maybe sitting would improve their record, cause it certainly hasn't helped them...

how many times does a 25 year season ticket holder have to be told to sit down?

Some please remind me why they put seats in a stadium. (sarcasm)

Its funny because the same folks that stand the entire game in front of a Grandmother who has dad both knees replaced is the same joker who will complain about the line to buy nachos at that same stadium.

Standing, like yelling, has its moments at a game. There has to be a happy medium. We don't want it to be a golfing environment.

I stand most of the game mainly because I can not see because of being on row 1, to me its a persons choice on what to do

I guess if i was told to sit down by security i would tell them to go get saban and the team to sit on the sidelines so i could see as well :a:

I prefer standing during game play. Sit during commercial breaks and halftime...

and that is not just at the game for Porter, he does it at home as well :td:

I wouldn't say so cut and dry. Some just like to stand and some like to sit. I stand most of the game, until the lead is large. If the elderly gentleman that has sat behind my Tide Pride seats for 11 years now (who uses a cane) asks me to sit I would gladly sit. A curtosey to a fellow veteran.

Now being squeezed out of my seat by the 300 lb gang, the only relief I have is to stand while they sit and eat their Dippin' Dots and nachos.

If you stand to spite everyone else then its wrong. If your entire section is standing and one person is complaining then seriously they need to reconsider coming to a live sports event.

Ahhh, that was me this weekend. I paid $400 for 2 tickets right next to each other (seats 1 and 2) but only got 1 seat out of the deal. Dippin' Dots and nachos strike again.
