by the portal where the team comes out, that say "reserved" for ROC helpers... or something like that... really weren't meant to reserve those seats? They were there... saving the first 7 or 8 rows...
For basketball, I have seen the people on the front row and they are definitely not all waiting in line before the doors are open. Some of them are in the arena before the rest of the students were even let in... I have seen the red head guy walking in and out of the arena like he owns the place on multiple occasions while we are all waiting in the cold... It seems like they are given at least some seats of their own to compensate for their work... But those are just my observations. I'm not saying they are in the wrong, I'm just saying that what you are saying seem s to be inaccurate based on what I have seen.
