From the "you've got to be just a little crazy file," the University of Minnesota sports department has uploaded this video from Saturday's pregame ceremonies, and a helmet-cam view of parachutists who dropped in on the Gophers' football stadium.

From high above you can get a good shot at the empty student section.

I think you need to let students in free. Fill up the stands.

There were free students tickets put on benches around campus on Friday.

As a Badger, it's hard for me to stick up for Gopher fans, BUT students don't show up for pre-game crap/festivities anywhere. Precious sleeping and/or drinking time is not wasted on such things.
