Go to Post Your GPA in High School and College is a reflection of your cooperation with educational processes, nothing more. It is NOT a measurement of how much you know or how much you can learn. - Mike Martus [more]

Re: Saving Seats Epidemic

"Their spirit people take up the same amount of room as the scouts from 20 other teams." he said. Its an interesting thought, 90% of their seats went to cheerers who loved to stand and block the view of people behind them, but they did get there first. I only mention the identity of this team because they ironically won the championship Gracious Professionalism award.

So it begs the question, what is more graciously professional? Is it, "we only need these higher quality seats for our scouts", or "they got their first so we should respect their right to take up as many seats as they can"?
The Pink Team, 233, won the Championship Spirit Award, not Gracious Professionalism. Not that they don't show any GP, I've talked with several of their members, including their cheerers and they are all gracious and professional.
