Sure.
First the student workers pile all of the seat requests into a big pile in the center of the room. Then they take turns running and jumping into the pile, like leaves in the fall. When they tire of that activity they enjoy hours of paper airplane making and origami. Joel Maturi checks in occasionally, asking "How's the seat thing going, guys?" "Just fantastic, Mr. M, almost done" usually replies the 5th year, literature/business/astro-physics major, looking up from his Facebook/Angry Birds game. Most days are also passed with betting pools centered on how long ticket office callers will stay on the line before hanging up.
After a few more weeks of paper snowball fights, best of 247 paper football games and life-changing paper cut incidents, the deadline for the assignment finally arrives. This day consist mostly of the students furiously processing request forms into the industrial shredder, and then a few hours of upgrading the seats of friends and family, (and anyone smart enough to attach a $50 bill to their request form).
The rest of the year is spent answering calls with "Your request must have been submitted incorrectly, or could not be fulfilled as requested, but rest assured, there are no bad seats in TCF Bank Stadium. Thank you for calling."
Hope this helps.
