Dozens of fans arrived at the Superdome for the BCS title game between No. 1 LSU and No. 2 Alabama to find their seats were taken for auxiliary press seating Monday night.
The top two rows of the upper deck were turned into an overflow area for the media, with one of the rows covered by tables. Fans complained that they paid for those seats but wouldn't be allowed to use them. Officials with the Sugar Bowl, who were in charge of hosting the championship this season, quickly found new seats for affected fans closer to the field.
“In making adjustments to accommodate the overwhelming media demand for this game, it was necessary to void seating in the upper (rows) of the stadium,” Sugar Bowl spokesman John Sudsbury said. “Apparently, some of that seating was not removed from the saleable manifest.”
