Fans Arrive to Find Seats Now a Media Area.

There's another ticket mess at a football championship game.

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.

Many want 'distance' for perspective.
