Seat Hopping – Unwritten Rules Of

I was fortunate to get some seats in Section 133 yesterday against the Phillies. Closest my son and I have ever sat at a game. It was great, lots of energy even though I felt like a stranger sitting among a group of season ticket holders. The security guy was a hoot, loud and boisterous and well-liked.

With that said. Third inning is about to start and I see some people shuffling around to get closer to the field. That's fine, I know about the seat hopping thing. Be cool about it, if someone asks you to move because you took their seat, move. You couldn't get any closer to heckle Castellanos anyways, he could hear our section, lol.

It just so happens the seat in front of us were reserved for security. He even had his drink the cupholder. Everyone saw that he was sitting there, including the guy one row behind me with his wife. When everyone started moving up a few rows, that guy decided he was going to take security guy's seat.

He was gesturing to his wife to move up but she said someone was sitting there. Yeah, the guard. Everyone knew that. Well, the guard said he needed to move back to his seat. Guy didn't like that, and started pointing out other people that had moved. D*ck move from my vantage point.

So, to be "fair", a few people moved back to their seats. Some of them were just spreading out (my son and and I are big guys so that's always appreciated). That guy that complained had a sour face the rest of the game, I kept glancing back to see if they were still there. His wife looked mortified. I chatted with the security guy and he said that sometimes it happens even when they're all cool down there. Way to ruin the mood dude.

Aside from that dingus, that Section was so much fun. No swearing, kids had fun. Great view, 10/10 would go again.
