Welp, guess I'm the first victim. My seats are victims. Just got an email this afternoon that the club would call tomorrow to "discuss alternatives". The phrasing was way too matter of fact for my taste when they were basically emailing to say, "Fuck you and your seats for next year."
well that makes the question of keeping your seats there easier
How have I never seen this???? Hilarious and completely clarifies the point of this thread (although probably harder to take a selfie at the terrace bar than in your seats).
True story - I am married to an ASU sorority girl, though not of the same vintage.
So, if you look at the article, it says Yankee Stadium capacity will decline by 2,100. Of this, 1,100 will be "obstructed-view Bleachers seats", and another 600 will be Terrace Level seats. The other 400 are not clear, but these are probably other ground level seats that are not obstructed.
This means the seating capacity of the two lower levels that we use for our games will decline by about 1,500 seats - most or all of which are bleacher seats and about half of which are probably coming out of the supporters sections.

I believe all of the lost bleacher seats will be under the tarped sections so it would have no impact on our matches. It may even improve the atmosphere a little bit as you will have people crowded around that area instead of large dead spots.
Those bleacher seats were the ones under the tarps -- they didn't sell those two sections for NYCFC games due to the obstruction.
Well those areas are still going to be obstructed, so I don't think so. Also, the new bleacher areas don't appear to have seats. They won't be sold areas, they're just areas you can hang out while watching the game.
Just re-located. Dan Steeves called me. He was super helpful. He even had the two seats he thought I would choose reserved already.
Everyone who got bumped goes to the front of the relocation queue, which is both nice and fair. Well done, FO staffers.
ETA: Who's in 126?

Midfield, not bad. I'll be directly across on the other side. We can see each other's reactions to whatever may happen.
And a justifiable reason the main relocation process hasn't started on schedule.
Always thought it would be interesting to sit up there for a game. Did you roast in the summer time?
Yes. Great for faking a Hamptons trip.
Interesting. I thought they were keeping the seats, but shutting it down during construction.
