Many times they are parents or some person that was once close to the program or retired people and still go to games and give back to their school. If officials do not show up, they move the entire game or only play until the first guy they call shows up with a license. Then they claim we have to do all these other things to keep the kids safe. You do not pay the flight attendant more money than you do the pilot.

Great analogy
