Poor Rory Lee. The four-year Hawai'i season ticket holder is sad. When he got his tickets to the Sugar Bowl and excitedly opened the envelope, he discovered that he would be sitting in Section 127 of the Superdome. Section 127 is in the ... lower endzone! The horror! It seems fans used to sitting in a "kinda full" Aloha Stadium during the regular season don't like having bad seats for the biggest game in their program's history. Another Hawai'i fan says:
"I hope, in the sense of fairness, that Georgia season-ticket holders have similar seats on the opposite side of the field. It would be quite unfair if Georgia had a whole sideline opposed to UH's half sideline and a full end zone."
Listen up, Hawai'i. You'll sit in those seats and like it. I've been a UGA season ticket holder a lot longer than you've been one at Hawai'i, Rory. I might sacrifice a family pet to get down to 127 from the slop seats that UGA sent me: upper deck, endzone, three rows from the roof. But I'm not complaining. I'm happy the Dawgs are in a BCS game and will joyously squint through binoculars to discern if the players have taken the field.
Frankly, you should view a BCS bid as a blessing too and enjoy being in the stadium. LSU fans would crawl through the swamps naked and covered in alligator bait to get a chance at BCS Bowl tickets, even if they were upper deck endzones. And they won a national championship a few years ago. You, whose crowning bowl achievement has been at the Holiday Bowl, are now complaining about your lower deck endzone seats at the Sugar Bowl. It's probably not rude, but it is quite uppity.
If you know your seat location, the Saints have a nice seating chart with views from each section of the Superdome.

(Update from PWD: It appears that the 4,000 tickets that Hawaii gave UGA before they went on sale were all upper level tickets. That comes from a decent source, and it's "confirmed" using common sense. It does look like Hawaii received some upper deck seats during their whine fest from the Sugar Bowl. Most of those appear to be uppers. I'm hearing sections 619-613. I'm expecting the other 40+ upper deck sections to be Dawg fans and Hawaii mainlanders who bought via Stubhub or some other service. So yeah -- I agree with Quinton. If you're in the lower level at the Sugar Bowl. Don't bitch. Because most of us are sitting with Oxygen Tanks. Signed - PWD. 29th out of 34 rows. Upper Deck Corner.)

The oklahomo fans escaped such classless behavior and comments because the Dawgs straightened boise st's arses out in '05. We'll see if the "rainbarriors" are trainable.
Threadjack: VanGorder is now the enemy, per the AJC. Heres to hoping we ring up 50 on USCe next year.
BVG at South Carolina is true.

Hawaii was the one who made the mistake of handing 4,000 tickets away to Georgia because they thought they wouldn't be able to sell them. If this guy is pissed about how many Georgia fans he's going to have to share the lower deck with, he needs to take it up with his own AD, not us.
Rory Lee obviously isn't experienced in attending bowl games. The participating schools' ruin of the mill fans never get the best tickets. Does that clown really expect that Sugar Bowl sponsers sit will sit on the last row of the end zone upper deck so he can plop on the lower level, 50 yard line?
Boo-hoo. We were playing football for over 65 years before Hawaii even became a state.z
Section 635, Row 17 here. Wanna trade, Rory?

Somebody explain this. I have been a season ticket holder (points in neighborhood of 3500) for four years and I got 4 together in section 104 Row 19. Makes no sense. I was sure I would end up in the nosebleeds.
novel concept: dont buy your bowl tickets from the school, since the corporations always get the best tickets
signed,
common sense
