[QUOTE="tcumaniac, post: 2396802, member: 31299"] TCUDirtBag, if it makes you feel better, I've been religiously attending TCU home games for 25 years. My dad has pretty high points, but not that good of seats. In the old stadium we were row 12 on the 50 yard line on the west side. When the reseating happened, even though my dad had a really high pick date, all lower west side seats between the 20s were already gone, leaving my dad with lower west side seats on the 10 yard line. He had 3 kids in college at the time and wasn't into the idea of paying/ competing for club seats. Also, at the time, east side seats had much more of a stigma than they even have today. He could have had seats in the first couple rows of 234 or first row of 233/235, but chose those 10 yard line seats on the west side (against my suggestion). After a year of sitting on the 10 yard line and looking at his old location full of empty seats, he said screw it, and cancelled his seats all together (this was before they decided to create the rule that allows you to pass down seats to family). It took me three years to convince my dad (who hadn't missed a home tcu game since graduating in 1983) to finally try getting tickets again. As you can imagine, even with high enough points to be picking on last Tuesday, it's been a real struggle for him to get any decent seats. Anyway, my point is, I very easily could/ and one could argue should be sitting with my dad in chair back seats in 234, with the opportunity to inherit them one day. Frustratingly knowing this, I don't feel as guilty lucking into seats on row J. [/QUOTE]
