Best seats.

What are the best seats you have ever had to a sporting event? Current company I work for pretty much has center court 5-8 rows off the court which I have been lucky to get 2 different times. NBA so much better to watch up nice and close.

Also had opportunity to have seats for NCAA 2nd round games behind Cincinnati bench in Boise region when Huggins was there. Being a college kid at the time was interesting to hear him talk to his players.

At the time I did not know it. 3rd row corner endzone for "the catch" SF vs Dallas. Seriously was right in front of me.

I was 12. More worried about gettin another hot dog and some peanuts.

i take my g/f's son to a hockey game every year, few years ago when we started the pens sucked and tix were cheap so we sat on the glass for about $50.....i think he figured that's where we'd sit every time lol we move back a little more each year and it costs about 3 times that much

it was funny watching him at his first game too, every time the puck hit the glass or someone got checked he shit a brick lol

For wrestling, I was 3 rows from the ring & those were terrific seats. You could see everything clear as day, and of course the hot ass women you had a great view on too!

But for sports, an ex knew someone at MLSE, and we had tickets in the platinum area & those were outstanding. You could hear the chatter along the benches, player talk, it was really an experience.

San Francisco Giants AT&T Park. Section 115 right behind home plate 5 or 6 rows up. My Brother in Law said you want to go see the Giants play and I said sure. On the way he made a phone call and when we got there we walked over to a window and a guy he knew handed him the 2 tickets. You could hear very clearly the baseball popping the catchers glove.
