Where to sit at Lane Stadium
Can anyone give any advice on where to sit at Lane Stadium this Saturday? I am thinking either something close to the 50 yard line behind the team or trying to find the visitor's section. (I'll purchase on stubhub.) From what I can tell Duke fans will be centered in section 19. (that is the far right of this photo http://www.hokiesports.com/reseat/seating.html). Is that correct? Any thoughts would be appreciated.
VT fans = very respectful, in my experience

CB&B has attended games up there I think, and may can offer good suggestions.
I've been to 3 of Duke's last 4 games in Blacksburg. Have found their fans to be extremely welcoming and respectful. About as far from Maryland fans as I can imagine, and I was shocked to see them even mentioned in the same breath. I've been to games at Maryland and won't go back. I've seen Duke at UVa, Md, VT, Army, Navy, UNC, Northwestern, South Carolina, and Notre Dame and found the VT fans as friendly as any and as football savvy as any.
If you sit in the visitor alloted section, make sure you take sunblock. I got a nasty combo sun/wind burn one year there. Nice views of the mountains from that side. If the 50 is an option, go the 50, obviously. I wouldn't go too high -- half way up is good.
