Title: Press row moved?
Post by: bheitz on November 06, 2006, 02:19:24 PM: I was at the Bucks opener and this year they have moved the "press row" that was on the opposite side from the benches. Press row is now around the corner of the court and crammed into the area in front of what would be the student section. There are now Nicholson seats all the way down the old press row.

Did MU make the change or leave things as they were last year? I can't imagine the press being situated in front of the students.

This section won't be used as a press area. Rather it will be used as a VIF section for students chosen in a manner to be determined. Along with having the privlage of sitting in the seats, waitresses from Club Cambria will take orders from the students at these seats.

Correct. You have to be a fanatic to win.

My seats are right on the corner just diagonal to where the band used to be on risers. While the band may be off risers, unfortunately there was a cameraman there blocking part of the view now. >:(
