A Common Area For The Common Fan

The stadium ticket office is also an icon to the start of any U of A home football game, but this somewhat of an entrance is not for the students. The stadium ticket office is an area for any casual fan, tourists, local, or anyone else to purchase tickets. There are many windows where fans can walk up to buy tickets, which helps keep lines short. The sign that identifies the ticket window is also somewhat old and in shabby condition. This also represents the tradition and history of the fans that attend these football games for the U of A. The ticket window is one area where all types of fans and people can meet. There is also a team schedule for the U of A located on top of the ticket window, in case fans would like to purchase tickets for a game that is later in the season as well. Opposing teams fans also are allowed to walk to purchase tickets for their respective team. The group’s decision to use this photo was also quite simple. This was mainly due to the fact that we felt that we needed a way to incorporate the rest of the fans that attend the football games, not only the students. This picture stood out the most because although the ticket office looks dead, that’s how it starts many days as fans can walk up at anytime to purchase tickets for the game of their choice.
