    It’s better to watch at home. It’s cheaper and get beer is colder.

    Reading this made me think back to the 85 game against Okie State, when Thurman Thomas dropped 237 on "us"...bought tickets from a scalper, 5 rows up behind Okie St bench...I shook hands with Lou Rawls ("yooooul never find"...) as he was leaving the field after singing the National Anthem...shitty seats, shitty game.

    Best seats - Old HMB seats on the 50yd line

    Worst seats - Old HMB Alumni seats on the track.

    I was at Band Day with the Olympia Bear Marching Band in 72 or so. We got folding chairs on the track

    I was pretty much the only band guy that actually wanted to watch the game

    Did I know you were a band member?

    I was there in the same capacity in the late 90s, don’t recall where I sat. Now, Band Day is a way to make the stands look full for a loss against Montana.

    But how will you seize up before the 4th quarter when the banner lights start relentlessly flashing with BECU ads?

    OLD HUSKY STADIUM

    Best: Bought the basically "free" student tickets before I started at UW. I think they were like $10 a game. The old student section were the best seats in the house.

    Worst: Then cause of being a row peter puffer I got the free seats in the student athlete section which was like Section 15 or 17 down by the end zone. Pretty shitty. Not @PurpleBaze give us your tired and pour immigrants @section8 shitty, but still pretty shitty.

    Section 8 was best section. I met @TommySQC (RIP) there. @WhiskeyDawg was also near us.

    Worst: East end zone for '86 BYU game - bad seats great beat down of BYU, 1990 season tickets in the horseshoe about half way up looking straight down the north sideline - couldn't tell what was going on past about the 30 yard line.
    Best: 2006 Fresno game 50 yard line front row of north deck with great weather (got them on stub hub). Fresno missed an extra point in the 4th to lose the game. Also been in the Don James center with the boss's tickets a couple of times in 2016 and 17. Can't beat those seats but the games were so meh I don't remember which ones they were.

    Didn’t Caesar Rayford block the Fresno PAT?
