"Can you smell it? Can you fucking smell it"

"Smells like shit, Bob; a giant shit wave rolling through UCONN again."

"Basketball tickets must have just been released."

Now that the problem has addressed, its time to start fixing it. As many people have pointed out, other Universities have far better and less controversial ways of distributing high demand tickets. The system that seems to be the most fair for everyone involved is one which creates a reward program for attending other sporting events around campus. The more games one attends, the more "points" he/she earns. High demand tickets are then awarded based on a leaderboard system; those with the most points have first run. The consequences of this system include increased fan support for our student athletes across the board and a more united fan base (which then becomes a recruiting tool). Of course, people are still going to abuse the system, but at least it requires more effort than opening an email.

The administration has no incentive to change the current system. The current system is the easiest for them. The tickets get sold and people turn up to games, as they always have done and always will do. They make their money with any system. The only way to change the system is to get the administration to want or need to change it. No one is going to protest by not going to a basketball game and petitions have not worked. The only way I can see left to make them want to change is to give the administration a "black eye" so to speak.

This whole effort is a negative campaign towards the administration. The more people that get involved, on either side, makes this more visible. The more visible it becomes, the more the University will want it to go away. The only way it will go away is with a change.

Thanks for the support, negative and positive.

Another day, another list of students taking advantage of their classmates.
