I see it all the time, yet it never gets old. I walk to my seats at Papa John's Cardinal Stadium and look around, only to find colors of another team sitting next to me.
And these just aren't any colors: it's the color blue. As in University of Kentucky blue.
Which would be fine, if U of L was playing UK. But that happens once every other year. UK gear finds its way into PJCS every game.

Each year the student season ticket distribution process seems to get worse and worse.
The last two years, the Student Government Association used a lottery system where students who wanted season tickets came out to an athletic facility, signed up in groups of 25 for a designated number thrown in a hat or bag of some sort and then waited to hear their number.
The lottery can seem fair, but I don't agree with it because no matter how big of a fan you are, you could still end up with the worst seats.

Riding a shuttle is nothing new for University of Louisville students. Most do it everyday to and from classes.
Papa John's Cardinal Stadium provides parking for students close to campus and the shuttle cuts down on the time spent traveling from PJCS to campus and back.
The sad part is days where students want to go to PJCS – when the U of L football team is playing at home – there isn't any other way to get us there, other than walking.

Thousands of people flood into Papa John's Cardinal Stadium and Freedom Hall to support the Cardinal football and basketball teams as they go into battle. It is great to see all the fan support, but these are only two of the University of Louisville's many sports.

At this point in my life, there is nothing more thrilling than attending a University of Louisville basketball game.
There is one small problem: the location of the student section.
I know several schools' student sections are behind one of the baskets, but in such a large arena as Freedom Hall, the student section is isolated and it affects their performance.

Growing up an avid college basketball fan, it doesn't take much to get me excited for University of Louisville basketball. However, it takes more than a red and white scrimmage.
I attended last year's red and white scrimmage and didn't leave with anticipation of watching the Cards in their season opener. After the first five minutes, I spent the majority of the time text messaging friends who weren't at the game and talking to friends at the game about things irrelevant to U of L basketball. I left long before the game ended and didn't care to read about the game the next day.
