    Default Saddledome Seating

    For a concert, which would be better:

    Section 113
    Section 110
    Floor Row 15

    This will be the concert setup:



    Thanks!

    Either Floor row 15, or section 110 IMO.

    If your on the floor, your obviously closer to the "action", but from my experiences you'll be standing the whole concert on your chair if you wanna see since everyone eventually starts standing from the concerts I've been to.

    If you don't want to have heads blocking your view go with 110 since the seats/rows are already raised up each time, but your slightly farther away is the drawback for a clearer view.



    So either closer, but perhaps blocked head view or farther, but no blocked heads in the way.

    110 or floor row 15...I sat in 110 for roger waters and it was a great set of seats.

    I sat in section 110 for The Who and Van Halen and section 110 are great seats. The problem with the floor is that if you get someone who is really tall sitting in front of you, like Toyboy88 mentioned you have to stand on your chair to really see.

    110 because you get to sit, and it is easier to get to and from your seats.

    I think it all comes down to personal preference.
    I've actually been in all three of your choices and my choice between those seats would be 113. I prefer the seats that are most central (114 & 115) and also on the first level. I dislike floor seats because you are forced to stand the whole time and row 15 is far enough back that the performers are small.
    Also, if there's a lot of dancing going on, I really dislike side seats like 110 because a lot of the choreography looks 'messy' when you're watching it from the side and it was choreographed straight on.
    My preference would be 113, then floor, then 110.

    Thanks for the advice everyone. I was asking for the Rascal Flatts concert (buying tickets for Xmas.)

    Ok, I am buying tickets to the same concert. Ticketmaster have seats in sec 209, which is slightly behind the stage. I assume it's an open stage so you can see the sides of the singer.

    Now I found people selling tickets in sec 210 and 226. Don't recall the row but which do you think is better? 210 would be closer to the stage, but to the side. 226 further away, but see more of the front of the stage.

    I'd get 226. I think 209 would be crappy.

    Last year they had a huge curtain that covered the whole back of the stage - I don't know about this year though.

    226 ftw, most concerts you can't see from 209/201 except the very front part of the stage that sticks out.
