BYU students don't know how good they have it

At Syracuse, season tickets cost $160 for students and are located behind the basket. You have to camp out in the Syracuse winter to get the good seats. Never tried it, but I always feel bad for these kids they interview on the news when the temperature goes below zero.

Just a reference to an old Bronco quote. (nm)

Apr 15, 11:31pm

LOL. Having your seats changed with no warning?

Apr 15, 07:32pm

Saving the good seats for rich old people that pay more =...

BYU could stand to lose some of the righteous indignation. (nm)

Apr 14, 01:23am

Would it be distasteful to welcome them to the 90's? (nm)

Apr 14, 12:41am

I'm a student and I like the idea of the move.

Tell me how you aren't taken care of?

Douger

Apr 14, 10:46am

Time will tell. But as far as the "other programs" argument

You're already getting way more education than you pay for (short)

Apr 14, 11:44am

Cute. Put it on me because I'm CURRENTLY at BYU.

Apr 14, 11:51am

I knew I was getting a deal

Apr 14, 11:56am

Haha. That's not what I was saying. What I'm saying

Apr 14, 12:05pm

How did you get sold out?

Douger

Apr 14, 12:12pm

Yeah. Worse seats so better ones can be sold at a higher

Apr 14, 12:21pm

Worse seats which you were paying next to nothing

Douger

Apr 14, 12:26pm

How is buying the AS pass NOT supporting the program

Apr 14, 12:31pm

I didn't say you weren't supporting it

Douger

Apr 14, 12:48pm

That's fair. And thank you for being able to disagree

Apr 14, 12:57pm

Well, it's just a different way of looking at it
