Students - Hilton thoughts

They should just go back to real tickets and let us go in multiple gates. Pre scan for big games. This doesn't need to be as difficult as they are making it
Need to work with the Animal Science Department and get one of these.
Rounded turns will keep them calmer.

This was my idea and I told the person in charge of the door people/ushers. I think they are going to do this for next year. Their main concern is safety and their thought is that lowering the amount of doors available will in turn make it harder to rush the doors. The students really brought this on themselves by their actions last game.
Whoever makes these policies should have to take a traffic analysis class. Constriction is never a good idea.
Having only 1 entrance for football doesn't work either. Having that many people stand there and then all the sudden everybody runs is asking for a hazard. If it doesn't work in football why would they try this for basketball in a more constricted space?
Yeah I never saw anyone get trampled when all the entrances were open. You had multiple ushers by the entrances to make sure of that as well.
Derp. I'm saying that making it only the North entrance was a bad idea in the first place.
Since they oversold the tickets they need to be able to count them and make sure they dont let too many people in, hence only north doors.
probably not popular but I think i can see their reasoning behind this. by only having one or two students getting scanned at once (and only one way in to Hilton) there doesn't need to be as big of a rush to get in to get good seats because the initial flow of people will be spread out over a longer time. now they may need to look at opening the doors to get everyone in by tip off but that's another debate

You think they counted all of the people as they bum-rushed the doors during the KU game? Everyone had to sit down in Cyclone Alley 45 minutes prior to tip so they could count everyone in the seats.
I sent the corral idea to Jamie, Fred, Bill, Christy, Paul, and Steve. Anyone else I need to email?
Blaming 2,500 people for not being able to coordinate at once dealing with a very ****** plan doesn't make sense.
Whoever is in charge has ****ed up badly by just refusing to acknowledg that some games are different than others.
They need to just sell kansas tickets by seat and have students get in line for that, and then use the regular doors everyone else does at tip off. If any seats aren't filled at tip, let more students in and let them take their spots.
Overselling isn't an issue, the bottom is full, no rush to get in, problem solved.

They tried to. They had the hand counters, they would not have had to make CA sit if they came in like normal.
