Are those people up on top of the scoreboard? Who gets those seats? Doesn't look like camera operators. AD staff or something? Just curious...

I'm not sure who they are, but there were people up there every game this season.

The real answer is the score board manufacturers. Every scoreboard maker has a team of guys that go to the game and are on the scoreboard the whole game. Fairplay sends their guys.. My uncle used to go to a ton of bowl games. He had no interest in going to any football games. It was however his job. He would be on the scoreboard the whole time just in case something went wrong. I don't know how many orange bowls he went to but it was a lot.

I, for one, am glad Trojan doesn't have this same policy.

I've met one of the guys who works up there, he lives with several of my best friends at ISU.

His Facebook has some pretty epic pictures on it. He shoots film for ISU and I believe he does other jobs for the team during the week.
