So I have to pay ten bucks to be labeled a fan?  I don't care about the
t-shirt.  I have my own shirts I like to wear to the games.  I always ended
up on TV during basketball games last season because I had the patience and
love for the team to sacrifice a weekend to get the best tickets.  I sat on
the front row many times because of this, not $10 bucks and a t-shirt.

#1 Pretty much.  There were a lot of us who routinely had front row seats to
the basketball games because we had the dedication.

doesn't mean we have to be a lemming.
