More minorities join Alabama sororities

Seats are not reserved in the student section - it's first come first served. So as soon as the stadium opens, 3 hours before kickoff, the appointed pledges go and stake out the the seats. Even if they don't have their flags, they are dressed well (watch a game sometime and see how well dressed they are ) and wear their badges. And they spread out and stake out an area. I'd say 3/4 of the stadium is filled an hour before kickoff. Toto, you are not in Kansas any more. Nothing personal but football here is just as different as recruitment is.

And the stickers! The sorority women are dressed up as well--dresses in school colors, boots or sandals (depending on the time of year) and the spirit stickers. They make large stickers with ZZZ loves (fill in the blank). I watched the some of the Bama-Tennessee game and saw lots of navy blazers and khaki pants as well as girls in crimson and black & white houndstooth dresses. Saw several ladies wearing the large round stickers.

It is a whole different world from what I know in the Big Ten.

Here at Clemson we have gameday buttons-those rounds plastic button pins that say XYZ <3s the Tigers. You can stick them on your backpack when it's not gameday, which is what I've done. Everyone wears dresses as well in orange, purple, or some combination thereof. Our blocks are not large enough to hold everyone in the sorority because the school has figured out that if you give less students tickets you can sell more to alumni and because the sororities are the largest they've ever been here, so groups of new members will camp out for tickets together so they can sit together.

I've seen buttons and stickers in the SEC.
