The number of students in TCF Bank Stadium was low again Halloween weekend. It’s not surprising, given the current state of the team. In fact, it’s almost a rite of passage that students become more and more absent as the season goes on.This is precisely why it is baffling that student tickets require a student ID for entrance. I understand the concerns of scalping, but at this point, it’s almost impossible to give tickets away, let alone sell them for profit.

-- University of Minnesota student Casey Peterson writing in the Minnesota Daily

I guess things haven't changed much since the news early this fall that Gopher tickets aren't so hot with students.
