He called her "a far bigger person than those who have been sniping...
...simple--a well-managed line. No sign-up sheets or tickets reserved before Tuesday at 2 p.m., when the billets will be available to the general public. Rumors of rows of seats being doled in advance to privileged friends or players' roommates serve only to embitter the most loyal fans--the ones willing to wait for endless hours outside the Harvard Hall basement for the chance to yell "S-s-sieve" one more time...
