Just don't use chalk on the sidewalk . . .

Good one, Rover. I had forgotten about that.

I was confused about the discussions I've read about the section being general admission since I had no reason to believe I purchased anything other than reserved seating. RSL responsed and told me it was reserved seating, not general admission.

This needs to be resolved. It was an issue at the last game. we have always been told that the seat numbers are a formality in E32, not meant to be reserved. (wow you can type the whole word reserved with the left hand!)

You'd think they'd at least tell people something like "hey, you can sit there, but there will be a bunch of flags in front of you." Maybe the rules were different for the opener?

As per stadium rules, the seating is reserved. However, flags are banned (but we have flags, with the FO's blessing) as are drums (which we also have FO's blessing on) and tailgating (which we do with the FO's blessing, and is patronized by the GM noless).

The Loyalist section is "reserved seating" that will be treated as General Admission. As per our mission statement, we will try and get little people to the front so everyone can see. Also as per our mission statement, if someone decides that they absolutely have to sit in the seat that is says on their ticket, we will let them have it.

Our goal is to make the game as fun and entertaining for everyone as possible. Should you feel that your ticket has a seat number on it and you want to sit there, you can sit in that seat.

Please take the time to read our mission statement .

What happens to the person who was ousted from that seat? Do they have to just go to the very top of the section or something??

Also, people should keep in mind that they can sit in their seats (as per the mission statement, etc.) but that won't keep people around them from STANDING! 🙂

Good advice... Standing & joining in is aggressively encouraged!

I would imagine if someone demands thier seat that everyone just shifts one way or the other to make room for them tho.

so if I am a paid loyalist, and I'm going to the game, can I jump in with the loyalists or no?

Well I will attempt to answer this question as best I can. Please understand that the Loyalist leadership may have a different idea about section politics and obviously they have final say in it!

I imagine the answer is Yes and No! Which answer depends on a couple of different factors!

If you have tickets in E30-E32! YES!
If you do not have tickets in those sections and there is room for you(ie. you are not bumping a section/season ticket holder out of the section, or a reasonably good vantage point)... YES!

So naturally if you don't have tickets for the Loyalist section and there is not enough room then the answer is unfortunately, No!

Also if you do not have tickets in our section and you don't want to stand throughout the match and be very vocal then again, the answer is No!

Does anyone want to add anything else to that?

The Loyalists Mission Statement covers all other questions, but if you have further questions feel free to ask.
