Started getting season tix to both football and basketball about 10 years after graduation. In 1990 I had 12 seats for football and 8 seats for basketball in my name.
Over the years that number was reduced to 4 seats for each sport, and by 2012 or so I dropped my season tickets to football altogether. Instead my friends and I would just buy tickets to individual games.
Meanwhile I’ve kept the 4 bball seats, all through the 30-year NCAA drought. My son has them now, since I moved to FL 4 years ago.
I’m still a fan of both, and I would summarize my fandom like this: The thrill of rooting for my alma mater is everlasting. The joy I get from it might come from one good play, one good game, or one good season, and the start of each play, game, and season is another opportunity to feel that sense of anticipation, elation, and pride.
