He shouldn't have given his seat up. Shoulda just kicked the flag guy in the balls.
Camping out for the Iowa game

Think he meant kicked out of his seat. A lot of **** that think they are entitled. This includes cac, flag guy, and the guy that holds the quiet sign.
The 36 hour kid has to go sit by himself instead of with the 7 kids he waited 36 hours with. The usher and flag kid kicked him out because they said he has it reserved.
**** that ****.
I'm not even there and don't know anybody on either side, but that kid that camped out should be given his seat back. And flag guy should either give up his seat or get his *** beat.
Life isn't fair, which is why flag guy should be given the boot.
But for somebody to wait outside in 0 degree weather for 30+ hours with his friends and sit together only to get kicked out buy some entitled punk is just wrong.
I'm torn on what student policy is best. Mainly because I know that when I was in school, I had work and class obligations that would prevent me from doing something like getting in line 6 hours or more just to get in the lower level, much less camp for 36 hours. Kudos to you guys for camping, but man, if we were this good when I was in school, I would have had a hard time getting good seats.
Blah, blah, blah, plan ahead and/or skip those obligations. Sometimes that's hard to do!

I'd seriously get a group of the campers to request to talk to JP. If he's willing to drop off porta potties, I think he would listen. That is garbage, if true, that the camper got moved. The seats better be very well marked as reserved.
I'm serious as a hearty attack, some fanatics need to join Cyclone Alley and change this. Maybe the execs of CA should have their reserved seats in the back, there if they choose not to wait inline?
It's distracting me from the excitement of the game because I feel bad for the kicked out kid/angry at flag guy.
I feel like flag guy should get taped to a flag pole on campus. I haven't heard of a good taping in many years. I feel like people call that "Bullying" now, and you can get life in prison for that.
Suggestions:
1. Some non-students (or students who don't need to stand in line to enter for student tickets) should monitor the line to keep anyone from cutting (or letting people in line). Sort of like election officers, except these will have serious work to do. If you're not in line . . . you go to the back of the line. There are other ways to handle it, but having someone who doesn't have to stand in line next to the guy who tried to let people in may help with the enforcement.
2. If Flag Guy insisted on a camper giving up a seat, he needs to apologize. They should give him his own chair (not a ticketed seat) if he has an "official" role. His schtick could come to an end pretty easily with just a few people getting in his way. I kinda like what he does, but it is a liability sort of thing that wouldn't be hard to get an administrator to shut down.
3. Someone needs to cue the camera guys about who are the diehard fans. It is really a shame that some of the most diehard fans are not being honored with the best seats and with TV time. So, which guys are you? Front row near the visitor's bench (except for Flag Guy/Quiet Sign Guy's seat)?
