How do football fans know what side of the stadium to sit on?

Question

While watching tonight's BCS Championship, I notice that half of the stadium is red and half is purple.  How do all of the Alabama fan know to sit next to each other.  One would think that it would be all mixed up, as I doubt 30,000 fans bought their tickets at the same time.  Is it predetermined?  Is it on the seating chart for the stadium, such as home half and visitor half?

People she said she would sell them if the Gators didnt make it...but im pretty sure they will also hopefully against the USC Trojans. If I was you I would want Oklahoma cause everyone remembers what happened last time the Sooners went to the Orange Bowl. Its really going to depend on what the Gators end up ranked. Most likely they will be #1 if they get in cause they will have beaten the #1 team Alabama, so I would buy them on the home side.

They know what side the team is going to be usually then they sit on that side.  It's also usually shown in the seat map for most college football games.

the Alabama side is on the side behind Alabama's bench and coaches

the LSU side is behind their bench


all those good seats that are close to the field that you can see on TV are all sold at the same time to people with lots of money and time to coordinate
