    Not sure of the logistics of designating which seats specifically those would be and how the movers would know which seats were available and how that would be communicated.
    There was an app they partnered with a few years ago that did something like this (although you had to pay to move down). I wonder if they still have this, and/or can use the same technology.

    Naji Marshall has been officially endorsed by the House of Snipe.

    Tonight I will formally anoint him as the future of Xavier basketball.

    You kids with your new fangled technology. In my day you just moved down and ran the risk of being run out.

    We were there some than a half hour before and there was still a really long line to get in. That's insane. You want to wand people before they come in, fine. Have more than 4 people wanding, especially when you have at least 8 lines for people to take tickets.

    Someone did a horrendous job of planning.

    Let’s move down was a great resource available for one season. I believe the entrepreneur who created it sold it to a national firm and it pretty much died as far as x goes. Some friends and I scored row 2 tickets thru them.

    There are ways to work that stuff.

    Part of the problem with giving really wealthy people dibs on all of the good stuff is that sometimes the rich and famous are not good fans and go no show.

    Ways exist to combat that. We should explore that.
    They did this at the University of Tennessee hoops games. When X played them in Knoxville many moons ago (DNL coaching?), we were "invited" to move down to the lower bowl midway through the first half by the PA guy. Not sure if they still do it there, but a cool thing nonetheless.

    I usually just wait til the second media timeout of the first half and then move down.
