Re: Swapping seats during the game

Just tell them you're a paid seat-filler. For the sake of appearance of the place on television, like.

I did it a few times last year - one of the few benefits of the new place is being able to move around it.

Never had any trouble, but then again I moved to areas where everyone was standing.

I don't think the stewards particularly mind- might be different if you're headed to expensive seats in a different block to the one on your ticket though, and they ask to see it.

As for sitting in an empty seat I think as long as it isn't anyone else's for that game then it's fair game as long as you don't act like an arsehole to the people who already sit there (i.e. sit and moan if it's a standing block, stand up and swear if it's a sitting block) If you behave ok and someone grasses you then it's a bit pathetic.

However unless your own seat is really shit (like row 72) then is it worth the bother going around hunting for empty seats when the game is on?

Done it a few times. Better atmosphere and view of the game.

Although people sitting near the front seem to get the right arse ache about it when you sit in a seat that is clearly not being used by anyone.

they must prefer the leg room.
