I've always known that the balcony was primarily student seating but was not aware that it was 100% student seating (and 99% vertigo inducing). <br>The uncertainty should have really been thought through, especially if you are going to ask people to put down over a $500 a ticket for balcony seats for a team that tries hard but does not win much. The irksome part is that even if you took them up on the offer and bought the balcony seats, you were not guaranteed a spot in the ticket wait list for season tickets (which should not be impacted by student ticket availability). They were not able to tell me at the time that I would get any sort of Varsity Club points for purchasing balcony seats.
