From Coach Fisher to The Show:
Dear Aztec Faithful -
We know the energy and enthusiasm brought by The Show is what makes Viejas Arena one of the toughest home courts in the country. It is important to remember that when you are in the student section, you represent something greater than yourself. You represent San Diego State, and we need your help to make sure the representation of our university is a positive one. Our upcoming game against top ten opponent BYU will be televised nationally by CBS, and will be one of the biggest games in the respective histories of both programs. We always encourage The Show to continue to be the most creative, funny, and loudest student section in America, but we cannot cross the line into topics that are out of bounds and distasteful, particularly making fun of one’s religion. Please discourage any chants or signs that cross this line. We will not permit signs that are derogatory or disrespectful of our opponent. Let’s win this game, but in a respectful fashion befitting your university. GO AZTECS!

Head Basketball Coach
The Show has also been told by SDSU Athletics' Administration that shirts and signs will be checked before they are permitted to enter Viejas Arena. Please follow these rules:
Signs must be no larger than 20 inches x 20 inches.
All signs will be checked for content.
Any signs or shirts deemed to be inappropriate, derogatory or offensive will not be permitted into the arena.
Any signs or shirts snuck into the arena that are inappropriate, derogatory or offensive will result in the ejection of bearer of the item.
That being said, we have been told that the "I Poked Jimmer's Girlfriend" shirts will not be allowed in the Arena. Again, sneaking it in could result in being kicked out. "Missionary gear" will be allowed.
Thanks and GO AZTECS!
