It would be great to see that in the NFL, and maybe have hundreds of them landing on the kneelers, and drape the flags over their lifeless bodies. Yeah - that would be a good start. Can the owners be on the field too? We need to send a message.

Great pictures, I always miss the pictures like that afraid I'm going to miss something lol. Glad you had a great time and the weather was nice for you. We would have went at the last minute, with us only being 1 1/2 hours away, if we could have gotten a ticket yesterday. We enjoyed watching at home last night, couldn't believe how empty the stadium looked on one side.

According to the VA tech fans, the stadium was full- the empty seats are assigned student seats which the students use to get in with and then sneak down to better seats with their friends.

Thanks to all for replies. Had a great time there. Also found out what the key rattling is supposed to be about from an old time fan. The keys are rattled on 3rd downs and other"key" plays. Also years ago they used to have some kind of big Turkey leg rattle attached to key chain to make extra noise b4 it was outlawed. Now they just do it out of tradition.
