New Stadium
Seating Plan
Announced
There are no two sections or
two ramps in Memorial stadium
numbered the same as last year,
according to Business Manager
A. J. Lewandowski.
If you sat in Section G, West
Stadium, last year, your tickets
will be numbered Section 26. Also
if you entered Ramp 2 in the
East Stadium, you will now use
Ramp 3.
In previous years both the east
and west stadiums were numbered
and lettered identically. Because
so many people misread their
tickets and entered the wrong
stadium, this -system was origi
nated. The East Stadium is numbered
Sections 1 (at the north end of the
concrete stands to 11 on the main
floor and 101 to 111 in the balcony. '
Ramps are numbered 1 to 11 us
ing only the odd numbers.
The West Stadium is numbered
Sections 21 (at the south end of
the concrete stands) to 31 on the
main floor and 121 to 131 in the
balcony. Ramps are numbered 21
to 31, still using only the odd
numbers.
Each ticket contains t1 is infor
mation to make it easiei for you
to find your seat: Ramp number,
section number, row and seat
number.
Mr. Lewandowski urges every
one to come early and use the
ramp designated on the ticket.
Season tickets for the Univer
sity of Nebraska's five home foot
ball games are available in the
Coliseum ticket office, Mr. Lewan
dowski revealed.
Reserved-seat tickets for the
Nebraska-South Dakota game on
Sept. 24 are now on sale in the
