While you may have camped out to get good seats, five minutes before the game starts, some inebriated a-holes will believe they're entitled to those seats and push and shove until they get in.

As a student I would get very angry when the seats the students are given are only half full at game time. All the students, for the most part at least, should be in their seats 30 minutes before tip-off and start cheering immediately. It creates such an intimidation factor for the opposing when the arena is full during team warmups, and conversely it helps the home team get amped up even more. And if everyone would get in the habit of wearing the same colored shirts and stuff like that it would make the environment way better even though it is already top-notch.
