Stadium’s seating policy revamped

Michael Young

The Sacramento State athletic department has implemented seating policy changes for the remainder of this season’s home football schedule.Sac State students can still use their OneCard to get in free, but can also purchase two additional tickets before gameday for $8 each.

The extra tickets will allow friends and family to sit with students in sections 118 through 126 (the student section) of Hornet Stadium.

In past years these sections were for students and general admission, but were restricted to Sac State students only on Sept. 6 vs. Saint Mary’s, causing seating problems.

“We really want students to be there and enjoy the game,” said Bill Macriss, associate athletic director for administration. “We want it to be easy for them, but we want to protect their seats.”

In 2001, many students attending the Causeway Classic were forced to sit on the opposite side of the field away from the overflowing student section.General admission tickets to this year’s Causeway Classic will cost $15 but Sac State students will still be able to purchase their extra two tickets to the student section for $8 a piece.

In addition, signs will be posted to direct people to the different entrances.
