University Section
Section 28 in the East Side bleachers at Mosaic Stadium at Taylor Field is known as the University Section and it is home to a notorious group of season ticket holders. The fans who occupy section 28 are known for their strict allegiance to the Riders, standing through the entire game, and often being merciless to opposing fans who sit in the section and cheer for the road team. They enjoy taunting the opposing team's bench with a series of chanting and slandering. The University Section got its nickname from the section's main purpose in the 1980s and 1990s and was a discount section offered to university students in Saskatchewan. The section no longer serves as a university section but still retains the name because of the rowdy behaviour of the fans.

Famous quotes containing the words university and/or section:
“It is the goal of the American university to be the brains of the republic.”
—Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
“Every man has been brought up with the idea that decent women don’t pop in and out of bed; he has always been told by his mother that “nice girls don’t.” He finds, of course, when he gets older that this may be untrue—but only in a certain section of society.”
—Barbara Cartland (b. 1901)
