  1. This has troubled me since Apogee opened. The fraternities get most of the blame because they advertise who they are in letters 8 feet tall. But too many people that have tickets or student passes are still milling around the hill well into the first quarter. And then, they may or may not come in. The same problem exists in the Hub Club. People that have paid their hard earned money sit in the dining area instead of coming out for kickoff even on a moderate temperature day. And when I dash upstairs for another glass of iced tea, many of those same "money supporters" are still sitting, talking, and watching another game on the TV. I'm looking for suggestions for both problems. If you agree they are problems. I've wondered if maybe a big spectacular could be made of "time to pack up and go inside the stadium." Maybe Scrappy followed closely by some guy playing a marching snare drum. Sort of a "Pied Piper" sort of parade. Fans would join in behind Scrappy and march into Apogee to their seats. A big bottle neck to be sure when it comes to checking tickets. There must be some way to make that process faster. And in the Club, how about turning off the TVs for 5 minutes before kickoff and keeping them off for 10 or 15 minutes into the first quarter ? Perhaps stopping food service 5 or 10 minutes before kickoff. Probably a bad idea if somebody pays their money and gets held up coming to the game. A problem to be sure. But we have developed a culture over the years that there is no real reason to be prompt. Bill Mercer used to refer to the "fashionably late" Fouts Field crowd. I await your suggestions and comments.
