Davis Wade Re-seating Thread

[Seinfeld]

For those of you that buy season tickets, where did you sit before and where are you going to try to get tickets during the re-seating process? I still haven't made my mind up, but I was curious as to what others were thinking.

I sit in Sec 4 right now and my current plan is to stay there, but I'm hoping to move closer to the aisle. Also considering Sec 100/200 chairbacks, but I'm just not sure that I can justify spending $1100 in total costs per seat right now...

I was in section 3, seats Row 11. It was pretty low to the field. Too low for my taste. The camera and cheerleaders, etc got in the way and on sideline plays you can't see what's going on. We joined the scoreboard club. I was already at 500 per seat ($1000 total - more than the minimum for section C) so it was an extra $1200 a year for me, but it's something we wanted to do (personal preference). We like to get into the stadium early and are not big tailgaters so the scoreboard club was interesting to us as a place to hang pre-game and get a seat during the game.

Sec 6 Row 20

I have 4 right on the goal line. The cost of moving closer to the 50 just isn't worth it to me. I'll probably just request 10-20 rows higher if anything.

Sect 3 Row 31. Pretty good seats but the folks down from us have either 1/4 oz bladders or a really bad meth habit. They cannot be seated more than 10 minutes. They also invite guests in from out of state whom they haven't seen in a week. Either that or one of them is a dealer. Either way, I'm gonna move and let somebody else deal with them.

Upper east side on the 40ish yard line. Just gonna try to get as low and close to the 50 as i can on the upper east side. They way i read it, I don't think my $200 donation will get me any better seats anywhere. I'm gonna try to add 2 seats to mine but i'm still confused if i'll be able to or not.

We are 4 as well. Just want to be closer to the aisle. I'm happy with where we sit.

At this point, all you can do is put in a request, and then my understanding is that the BC will fill open requests based on priority ranking and availability. Even without knowing where you rank, I would be absolutely shocked if you weren't able to get a couple extra seats, but you really do need to call the BC or fill out a request online during the next few days to make sure that they have it on file.

Last year I ranked 2300 and our 4 were in section 3 row 14. Pretty good seats... I've done all I can do to boost my rank including a $8500 donation this year. I'm at around 15k lifetime giving which isn't bad for only being in the BDC for 5 years. My goal of sitting in the 100's seems to have come up short seeing as how I could only get my rank up to 1650 at the time of this year's donation, but it has steadily climbed to almost 1700 in about a week. I guess I'll shoot for an Isle seat in section 5.

Still haven't made up my mind either.

I have 4 seats very low, middle of row in section 6. My BDC rank is about 3500. It was over 5000 when I first joined in 2010 and got my current seats. I'm hoping surely I can at least stay in section 6.

My biggest questions are:

1. Would I prefer section 20 if it was available? (same donation as section 6, but on the east 50 yard line)

2. Would I switch to section 3 or 5 and basically double my yearly donation?

I'm in the west side chairbacks (200 level), and I'm HOPING to keep them but it's doubtful. My BDC rank is 850, which I thought was good enough, but they say that 849 people get to pick before me, and they will probably average 4 tiks each, so those 2,500 chairbacks on the west side will probably be gone before I pick. Also the Today Tomorrow Forever folks get to pick before any of us.

A lot of people will be really pissed about this re-seating. But you know what? They'll get over it. Just like they did at Vaught Hemingway. It's all about the money, period.

All of those 849 are not going to choose to sit in the east side chairbacks though. You should be OK.

Thanks. I'll give them a call in the next few days. I know that FAQ said no adding new seats until end of reseating, but I tweeted Stricklin and asked him and he responded with yes. Not sure if he knew that i meant i wanted them together.
