It's easy, and only takes a few moments.The Upper Corner, and Upper sideline, I was thinking about purchasing tickets for either of those two sections. Is it worth it? Will I be able to see the game clearly from sitting way up there? If so, which section would you recommend? Thanks
I actually like upper level more..you can see the entire play develop rahter than being closer to the field
Does anybody know if the seats in the first row of a section like 131 or 111 (lower sideline) are obstructed (perhaps by players/equipment or maybe by just a lack of being able to see the entire width of the field)? I'm thinking of buying a set of tickets from a colleague, and it being the first row seems too good to be true!
They are somewhat, yes. Others may be able to speak to them better, but a few years ago my wife and I got tickets in 131, first row on the ticket Exchange. While it was a great experience (and got on TV), I actually prefer being about half way up or higher in the lower bowl for the best view. It was a pain with the camera vehicle going back and forth at times.
For the price though, give me 200 level seats or even the first 7 (or 8) rows of the 300's (the lower tier) any day. I still think the best seats I've had were 331 first row. Get to watch the whole play unfold. Gotta love the ticketExchange, but now we're spoiled as when we get our season tickets we'll probably be in the corner 300's last row!
Agreed. Best seats in the house are the 200's or the first 6-7 rows of the 300's.
It's not even 'seeing more' but screaming until you lose your voice; high fiveing a great play; it's the adrenaline rush that starts the night before getting the tailgate ready, being with friends, sharing drink, good food. Even the anticipation of walking from the tailgate to the stadium. LOL before the snowbowl game there were 3 Raider fans dressed as Darth Vader. We gave them a ton a crap!. Then, there's the game itself .Some things to remember about the views at Gillette:
* You get a full view of the field regardless of where you're seated except for the first few rows of the lower bowl.
* The photos from places like Seat Data make the field look much farther away than in person.
* You always see much, much more at the game than on television. MUCH more. Bring binoculars, which come in handy especially for seeing what's happening on the sidelines and when a player goes down on the field.
