[QUOTE="illini80, post: 1779535, member: 2241"] I couldn’t find the specifics on the history, but the Krush originally had seats on the floor. I was lucky enough to have one of those seats in the late 70’s. We sat right behind the illinettes and I promise you I never missed a game. We got to be pretty good friends with some of them and I spent the rest of the school year trying to get one girl to go out with me, but she had a boyfriend and it never happened. I was…wait for it……krushed. :hailtotheorange: Back to your point, at some time the Krush expanded and were moved into regular seats behind the $$ donors. If Kruger was the one to make the call getting them back on the floor, good for him. It began a legacy that should never change.
