good deal

There is enough time till the start of the season for everyone to forget that this stupid idea even existed.

Who is this?

Thanks, Brandon. Hope this cuts down on the new threads.

If the winning "alternative option" comes from TexAgs, I say free tickets for one year to whoever came up with it.

What I still don't understand is how 12 seats represent the 12th MAN?? It is either one seat (in honor of E. King Gill) or the entire student body collectively. It's not the 12th MEN!

Student Body President Reid Joseph on Friday said that student leaders are working on ideas for a special way to fill the seats.

I hope one of the ideas is do nothing.

Chipotle's idea

From the same people who gave us the "bevel".

Has a student body president ever been impeached?

Thank you for the info.

only one reason for having 12 seats. the seats were reserved - one for each of the 12th man that lost their life while building the bonfire. nothing else.

That would be fine if the point of these seats wasn't to show off the 12th Man to tv audiences. But unfortunately that IS the point of these seats, so leave bonfire out of it, it would be horribly disrespectful.

I also don't see how 12 men strengths the brand of the 12th Man. It seems to do the opposite, to blur the meaning. There should not be 12 seats, filled or not, with any special meaning. If there MUST be something (and anyone that says there MUST be something is not being truthful) then it should be a single spot.

What do the victim's families have to say about this?

The 12 seats aren't for the bonfire victims and are never going to be for the bonfire victims. So no point in anyone asking the families about it.

It would be interesting to hear their opinion....since the original plan was for their fallen loved ones anyway.

Dumb idea. Make it stop!

I'm reaching the point of not having the seats at all myself. Seems like there's waaaay too much disagreement with the whole idea.

this is NOT about Bonfire... we have a beautiful memorial for those students who will be missed forever.

EMPTY SEATS WOULD BE A TRAVESTY

if the administration is reading this........DO NOT PROFIT ON THE DEATHS OF THE 12 BY PUTTING IT IN FRONT OF TELEVISION AUDIENCES!!!!!


how low life can you get?

Just show off 31,000 students standing and yelling with the "Home of the Twelfth Man" letters across the front of the deck like always. Kill this 12 seats idea, it is stupid.
