I hope I am wrong on this, but limiting tickets to both students and adults could do more harm than good, for the fan base. Deny someone entrance, they may never show up again. Several years ago, I was denied entrance to a sold out high school tournament game, (and I had a pass). I have yet to return to a basketball game at that high school.
This is your lucky day, as your hope has been realized. You are wrong.
You were no doubt "denied" entrance to that HS game years ago when you had a pass, because the game was sold out. My guess is the Fire Marshall had something to do with it. Somehow I don't think anyone is losing sleep because you haven't been back.
The discussion here is not about denying entrance to people who are entitled to it. It's about determining who is entitled when capacity is limited in as fair a way as possible, to assure the best home court advantage possible. If you want to revert to saying the solution is to have enough room so nobody ever has to be "denied", you are entitled to that opinion, but the past 30 years has pretty clearly demonstrated that is not the way to have an electric game atmosphere game in and game out. Time to try something different.
