    TWO QUESTIONS:

    1. Doors open at 8:30....what time should I get there to stand in line.
    2. I am not a student, however can I sit in the student section for this event?


    Let's GO DUKE!

    furthering this, coach K's talk is supposed to be 8pm on friday...is this open to the public?

    also, they are requiring all tenters to attend gameday, so the odds of getting into the student section are slim I would think

    That being said, I think the entire stadium is open to sit in, and I've been there twice and its never been close to filled...this combined with my guess of not so much room in the student section would mean I probably wouldn't spend TOO much time in line....just a guess...i don't rightly know

    I wouldn't count on Coach K's talk being open to the public. I don't remember completely, but I do think they check for Duke Cards for anyone trying to listen in.

    As for GameDay, the student section might be tough, but the stadium itself won't fill up. It didn't the last 2 times they came (08 and 10)

    the tenters are being let in at 7...so I would guess it's a single viewing

Doors will open at 7pm and the event will begin at 8pm. This will be included as part of Kville for those involved in Personal Checks or in the walk-up line.

    GameDay seating

    From what I recall from two years ago, they try to fill the 'middle' of the student section and above and move outward from there, because that's how it appears full on tv. So yes, you very well could end up in Section 17, but its much more comfortable to sit upstairs so you can have a seat during the breaks.

    Don't worry, there's plenty of room.

    Here's more of the email I didn't copy and paste before. Perhaps there are two showings for the students?
    Doors to Cameron will open at 7:30 pm and seating is limited. After the screening, there will be a special student-only presentation-all others will be asked to leave the stadium.

    I'm going to guess the "special presentation" is just coach K's talk and that will follow a single screening of the movie.
