WTT- Greens for Blacks for an upcoming Flames Game

[ken0042]

I figured I would put this out there now seeing as the seat relocation event is still fresh in all of our minds. Basically what I was looking for is at some point during the 09-10 season; is if somebody would be interested in taking my pair of Green seats for a pair of row 1 Black seats for one game. During the relocation event we seriously considered a downgrade, but chickened out because we weren't sure if we were going to like it or not.

Even though there is a price difference between Greens and Blacks, I am looking to do just an even trade. Respond in this thread, or PM me; and we can work out the details once the schedule is released.

I would try pm'ing Czure32, his seats are row 2, but you would get the idea of what it's like being up there.

This is where drinking comes in.

I do find that to be one huge benefit of my seats in the 300's
a concession stand right behind me, a beer vendor and BP pizza by the slice in the tower at the bottom of the stairs (although I have no idea why anyone would pay $5 for a slice of BPs pizza) and the Olympic lounge there as well.
no shortage of places to buy beer...and when the inevitable happens, theres a bathroom right there as well, so you can hit that during the TV time out and be back before action resumes!

Yeah, the seats that came up were in 302, so I could see that all the ammenities we have in 202 were still just as close. Our concern was seeing over the railing; as some of the guys in out ticket group are shorter than others.

I found that you do have to lean forward a bit if you really want a full view of the ice. I'm only about 5'8" and I didn't have any problems seeing most of the time.

But then if you lean forward, you get yelled at by people sitting behing you. Sitting in Row 3 in the 300's are good because you don't have people behind you complaining, kicking your seat or spilling beer in your hair. And you can leave anytime you want by scootching under the bar.
The view isn't much different than row 1...

Well I sat there once and was drunk, so I'll take your husband's recollection over mine.

That's OK. I'm usually drunk when I sit there too
