Obstructed View Seating ????

hagams · 07-09-2007, 10:41 AM

All,
I'm trying to get 3-4 tickets for the season opener, however most of the tickets I'm seeing are labeled "Limited View", and then it has a percentage by it. Section 216, Row 22 is what I'm looking at now, but I don't want to get a ticket that has be behind any support beams.
For those of you that have been to the games, let me know what I can expect from these seats. I really don't want to spend the money and get shitty seats. All advise is welcome.

Thanks,

I can't believe they sell seats like that.

I once bought these "premium tickets" only to find them obstructed...i'd caution against getting them at any price- i couldn't see deep passes, punts, kickoffs, etc (due to being so far under the second tier)...i'm sure they've improved services (when i was there we didn't know the score, down, time, etc) but still, but i believe its a huge scam.

From what I understand, any rows numbered after 12 are obstructed and limited view. Row 22 will most likely put you deep in "the cave".

GOD AWEFUL! Better off at home IMO, I can't believe they can actually charge for those AWEFUL SEATS.

If you buy those your buying shitty as they come seats.

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.

Well, I think this post sums it all up.
I'd just keep looking for upper level seats because, while you might be far back, at least you don't have a beam or the ceiling blocking your view.

Uh. I am one of those people who want to be at the game 'really bad'...

Well at least you can't say we didn't warn you. Good Luck.

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.
