What do you all think?

I don’t know if I would rank BDS that high to be honest! Now, I’ve been in there for some games where the noise was deafening, LSwho in ‘07 for Arenas punt return, ‘09 Rocky Block, among others, but there have been more times than not that it seemed like I was at a HS game.

Is this purely based on noise levels? If you do the wins/losses ratio maybe some of those are not so hard to play in after all.

 

[XXL TideFan]

Based on who, I despise playing in Jerking Hair.

Facts.

I've been saying for years that our fans are spoiled.

I've never held season tickets, and would always attend games as one-offs when I could find tickets. I was usually in a Tide Pride section with a bunch of blue hairs.

I would stand and cheer for most of the game, and would get stares like lasers burning the back of my head.

I guarantee if we phased down some of those super-long-term "legacy" season ticket holders and opened those seats up to general admission, the "sidewalk fans" would bring much more energy and enthusiasm.

Those are the folks paying for everything, though.

Really. "Phase down Some of those super-long-term ST holders".

I know you don't mean takd tickets from those that have supported the program in good years. Bad years. Probation years.
Paying big money for really some shit gsmes.

Where yhe problem is The scalpers.
Buying tickets for the only purpose....resale.

Cant fuck the real fans but so much. Gotta be really careful

The third party brokers are your issue. They price 95% of fans out.

It's ok to have old fans enjoy Alabama football. Like others have said, they've done it longer than most of us have been alive. The students keave well before many others.

Another big issue is Alabama taking sponsorship dollars and giving tickets to those people, and it's a lot of those people that aren't even fans or ones who stay past halftime. I detailed a response a couple yeats ago at the Alabama-Miami game when we were in the massive Chick-Fil-A secption and how it was empty by the third quarter and multiple around us had zero ties to the game, just had tickets given to them. Same happened at the first Alabama-Florida SEC Championship game with Saban and Meyer when Dr. Pepper sponsored.
