I seem to recall that the recipients of some Coach O'Leary has said several times that he wants "crazy fans" in the North endzone to create a very loud cheering section that can help with the home team advantage. To that end, I believe that the marketing people at the AA and the Ramblin Reck Club came up with this solution. Personally, I would say it has worked pretty well. The ESPN cameras showed this group several times during the game and it made Tech look very spirited. On the block seating note, the AA was concerned about fraternities not getting to the game by kickoff and threatened to pull block seating altogether. Luckily for both parties, fraternities agreed to do a better job with getting to the game on times, and the AA agreed to let block seating remain. Ryan -- RYAN O.
