If she isn't down to staying until the end of the game, she probably has herpes and you should find a different one.
Honestly, staying til the end of the game to sing the alma mater with the coaches and players is one of the best parts of the game day experience. And so many people miss out on it. To me, A game isn't complete without it and a picture of the scoreboard after a win.
I am only able to go to a few games every year, but I relish every moment I am in that stadium. I always stay to the end just to get down close to the field and watch all the post game breakup. I guess it is still a special experience for me...the whole game day atmosphere. The beginning, middle, and end.
I've gotten to the point where I just expect it and quit worrying or bitching about it. Believe me, I don't understand it, always stayed to the end - wouldn't even think to leave early. But, it is so routine now, so predictable, that I am past complaining. Kinda like if my wife goes and spends a bunch of money on make up or facial creams. Its expensive, I don't understand why she wants or needs it, but then I do the same at Home Depot, so I quit complaining about $45 for a lipstick or moisturizer.
I stay to the end no matter what I stayed last week(at at other games) because I wanted to see Jennings and other young players get a shot. However I can see people leaving early for games like tonight. What I can't understand is people leaving early for SEC games or for big time OOC games. I'm in the old South endzone and see a few people leaving at halftime no matter what. It pisses me off royally every time. Many of us let them know how we feel BTW. How can you leave a game like that? I don't understand it one bit.
Also with season tickets you see the same people year after year and become friendly. It is a nice time and in blow outs we can enjoy each others company.
Well, I can't speak to what's going on in the student section, but TV did a wide shot of the stadium early in the fourth quarter. There was nobody left, and those aren't student seats.
