Obstructed View Seating ????

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.

If you can get there, obstructed view or not, be there. I'd never been to an NFL game before I moved here last fall, in fact I thought I'd actually prefer to find a sports bar and watch it with fellow Skins fans. But there is nothing like being there. I think just about every stadium has obstructed view seats that they sell at a minor discout, its a good way to get in the game and as 70chip says you just scout it out and move down. There are tons of no-shows every game, its just a matter of finding an empty seat and an usher who's cool enough to let you sit there.

And on a cold day, I'd love to find someone in my seat. Cheapest seat warmer ever!

I'd rather stick with my couch and the games in HD on my plasma.

No obstructed views at all.

I lucked out, about 5 or 6 years ago my friends finally got the call that their time on the waiting list was over (their dad signed up so long ago that he actually didn't want the tickets when they got to him, but his two sons did).
Now it's to the point where I get first dibs for the whole season so I get to go to about 5 or 6 games a season without having to worry about getting really crappy seats.
It's good stuff.
