This was my first year having season tickets. It was a blast being able to take my kids. Those are memories that will last forever.
That being said, my one complaint to those complaining about how UK has ruined their experience and all that, is that some of those same fans ruin the experience of others as well. There were plenty of games where people cussed me out, in front of my 9 and 6 year old, for standing and cheering. I am 33 years old, so I am not young nor old, but I know plenty of folks on the younger side that said they wouldn't go back because they were verbally attacked for "yelling to much" and that "they need to sit down" and they didn't want their kids nor themselves to have to deal with that.
Now, for me, I used the situation to teach my kids what idiots look like so they don't become one, but there are many who just won't come back. This isn't golf or chess, or the freakin library, it is a football game where people stand and cheer and yell.
People complain about the product on the field, yet they don't always do their part either. I went to every home game. Starting with the EKU game, the place was dead. The atmosphere for the EKU game was awful. The UT game was awful. Even when we scored on the turnover to get the first score, the stadium was dead. In big time college sports, atmosphere is bog in so many ways. The fans that show up to sit there and yell at other people to stop standing and cheering are just as much part of the problem.
Now, that being said, I am not blaming losses on the fans, but, thise who don't cheer at games in my opinion should never complain about the team "not showing up".
