MADISON, Wis. (AP) — UW-Madison police removed 131 fans from Saturday's football game between the Badgers and Texas-El Paso.

Sgt. Brent Gruber said most of the ejections — 89 — were related to fans sitting in the student section without student tickets.

Gruber said in a statement that police acted after receiving complaints during the first two home games of the year from students who were unable to sit because non-students were crowding their section.

Twenty-two people were cited for a variety of offenses, most for underage drinking, the Wisconsin State Journal reported.

I heard they were professional protesters, paid by the public unions - they somehow misunderstood their orders to meet at 'the clocktower'.
