Gate receipts <br />have become increasingly essential during the past few years <br />due to continued budget cuts faced by the athletic department. <br />It is our goal at East to maintain a safe yet spirited environment <br />during athletic competions; appropriate and adequate seating <br />for our opposing team fans is essential if we are to achieve this <br />goal and maintain the safety of all fans and spectators. <br />During the 2011 football season, seating was limited for <br />opposing team fans and resulted in the mixing of fans in the <br />home stands which resulted in several instances of fan conflict <br />and poor sportsmanship. Teams traveling to compete at East <br />should have safe and adequate seating for their fans. <br />
