I understand the issue with season ticket holders but my issue is when there is seating open on the home bleachers and fans choose to sit on the away teams bleachers. At the least they could have the student section not be on the visitors side when the only thing that comes out of it that they are screaming at the visiting team it gives the outlook that they just want to start trouble.

I sit in the home bleachers (unreserved section) every Friday. There isn't seating enough to bring complete student section plus other GC fans to home side. The season ticket holders have 80% of home side. If they don't come there seats go empty. Nothing can be done about that. But most games they do come and there are not alot of empty seats anywhere.

But honestly I don't care if visiting team has enough seating. They don't care if we do when we visit there place. PV visiting bleachers doesn't sit half the GC people when we come. Have to stand on the fence unless you get there at 6:00. Same goes for most.

There is a difference between not supplying enough seating for the visitors not being rude about it not letting the visitors sit in the visitors section of the stadium and screaming at the opposing teams players. Nice reasoning but its not very good. Nice try.

I would never scream at a opposing teams players or Coach. And I would say 99% of GC fans would agree. I agree that is disrepectful. I would also say that doesn't happen often. Sure there are some idiots. But come on. "Nice try"

I do not agree sitting on the vistors side is disrepectful however. We sit where we can.

Every game I've gone to this season there has been plenty of room left for visitors to sit. Some just like to groan and bellyache. The west end of the visitors side has been the student section for as long as I can remember and I'm 45 and have gone to games since I can remember and will probably continue well past my time.

Not much different than TS basketball games. 1/3 of the visitor's side will be filled with TS parents.

This problem has to be related with Gate Citys 10,000+ students.

A lot of stadiums are like that, No reason to be disrespectful to the visitors..

To each his own, at PV if your standing where we always stand and your pulling for the opposing team, loudly, you'll be asked to leave. We've done it twice already this year.
