I've personally never sat in these seats, but I've turned around and seen those poor poor people. I do know that they have plenty of tvs to watch. IMO if your going to watch the tv that they provide, why not just stay at home and save your money on tickets, beer, food, and no lines for restroom.
It all depends on how badly you want to be IN Fedex. My advice is to avoid the obstructed view seating.

I'm sure they still charge top dollar for these BS seats too.
What a ripoff

There are some obstructed view tickets that only obstruct your view of punts. They are way back in there but you can see everything.

I've sat up there a couple times. What you do is, you scout out some empties down below and sit there. If asked to move, repeat until you find a seat that is really empty. If an usher confronts you, play dumb. "What? These aren't my seats? Blah, blah, blah."
What are they asking for these seats. I knew a guy who got seats back there for like $29 bucks game last year. Then he would just move to better spot - which got a lot easier as the season went on.

I love finding people that don't belong in my seats. You can expect a quick ass booting for sure.

Can you imagine buying season tickets and finding out they're obstructed view.
I'd prefer to watch the game on a big screen t.v. in a bar.

98% of them blow, a small handful are very good. Buyer beware.

i was in obstructed seating for jacksonville last year. i couldn't see anything from the 40 to the 40. it wasn't great by any means. but i'm also the kind of person that just wants to be there.
it wouldnt be bad if the tv broadcast was the same direction as the action on the field from that perspective. it'd be like moss going for a TD and i have to change my pov. if that makes sense...

The only reason DS sells seats like this is because he can get suckers to buy them. Why anyone would pay their hard earned $ for a seat with a partial view of the action is beyond me. If you want atmosphere find a good packed bar and watch on a big, clear tv there. Or invite some buddies over and watch at home but dont give Ds $ for his junk seats.

I had the opportunity to get a "VIP Tour" of FedEx about 18 months ago. Because I had heard about the "obstructed view seats" and the complaints they caused, I found a way to go and sit in a couple of them and look at the field.
If you want to see a game very badly, then buy those seats because that's exactly how you'll see the game. You will get a better view of the game on a 17-inch black and white portable TV with rabbit ears for the antenna.
Caveat emptor.

Don't do it!
Pay the money sit in a good seat.
If you're only going to 1 or 2 games in a season make it count.
Have fun.
Those seats should be given to the blind only.
Snyder could not have pulled that shit off if Gibbs wasn't in town.
Those seats are total garbage and I'd rather sit on my couch.
