This needs to be stressed, emphasized, and very strictly enforced. My team does not like to save seats at all; if spectators or anyone wish to sit near us we let them. But it seemed at Championship we absolutely needed to sprawl our stuff everywhere in order to get some of the worst seats in the division, when several teams laid towels, signs, or even roped off huge sections of the stands before their team got there. Why does my team get punished for following the rules and they get rewarded for breaking them?

I had a few more but I forgot them.
