Great write up. The rhetorical tone is perfect. I realized yesterday that I don't know what I'm going to do about the Big Game. I'm coming out to the Bay Area for it, but I'm seriously thinking of sitting up on Tightwad Hill. This write up captures exactly why-I DO NOT WANT TO PAY $50 (or more!) to watch Cal football. Every bone in my body rebels against it, even though I can probably sit wherever I want to given what is likely to be not great attendance. TBH, every game I've been able to sit where I want every game of the Wilcox era I've attended. It IS one thing to be bad but exciting and zany, as some of the Dykes era games were but it is deadly to be boring and bad. You just want to turn away, so you don't see the car crash.
