May I ask why you do it?

You didn't ask me, but my reason is simple. Tradition and nostalgia. Students used to sit on the sunny side. Subsequently I bought season tickets on the sunny side because that was the Stanford side of the field and only "old people" sat on the shady side. Had great seats in the Old Lady, and for some reason it was never nearly as hot as the new stadium, even with the "normal" 1300 kickoffs. New seats are higher up and perhaps "better". There are several similarly "mature" groups in our section, although we have had some significant attrition in the last few years.

I also was not asked, we sit in 134 so ~35 yard line.  To move we'd have to convince everyone in our group to move (which is getting easier over time as we're now down to seven people from our peak of 14 people) and find a place that has seven seats together.  We were in the stadium until halftime Saturday then returned to our tailgater for refreshments and conversation with our tailgate mates who sit elsewhere.  I left at the end of the 3rd quarter, if I thought we had a chance to win (or even be entertaining) I would have returned for the second half.
