Pitch side seating and semi-related stuff

I wonder if Securitas still escorts you out for swearing when you pay $6,800 for your ticket
Yes. Yes they do.

An updated stadium map with pitchside prices. Looks like they'll be opening them up to the public for sale. Front row in all sections is $7,650. 2nd and 3rd row in PS1 is $7,225. 2nd row in PS4,5 is same price. No 3rd row in PS3,4,5

View attachment 4217

my view just got so f**ked
 
Have you reached out to fan services?

Yeah. They said go to the first match and see if it really affects my view, didn't sound like they cared too much. I sent them the same photos I posted here. My first match is the 2nd home match, so we'll see. Not sure what they could do. I just hope they're right and I can see the pitch, but I can't figure how I could anymore.
 
i called too and they said my view will not be affected which is bs. They advertised the sale and renewal of my seats with one seating chart and then changed the seating chart after we all renewed. They definitely violated the law in doing this.

You sure you want to start a legal battle with CFG lawyers?
 
Looks like I made a good move by getting away from second row of 107. Do we know how tall the pitch side seats are?

I imagine not much more than the Away/Home bench.
I sat very close at the Rowdies game. Not gonna lie those seats would be awesome to try out. Being able to watch on a video board helped with play going away so that's the only drawback with Yankee stadium. The board is behind and to your right if you sit there so not an option

Just throwing it out there, but I'm really not sure you'll have as much to fear as you think. Your seats - correct me if I'm wrong - are raised up above the outfield wall - so even row 1 has an elevated viewing position. Those seats look to me like they're just going to be a row of fold-out chairs lining the side of the pitch, like the VIP seats in basketball where you get the gifs of players colliding with Hollywood celebrities holding drinks etc. From the graphic, I don't think there's going to be more than one or two rows of seating. OK, you might struggle to tell whether a ball was in or out if it was on the sideline but I reckon you'll be able to see everything on the rest of the pitch without too much trouble.

Just adding my tuppence, of course. As I say, could be wrong.

I would think the second row of pitch side seats would need to be slightly higher than the front row, placed on portable platforms, not just placed directly on the grass.

You're wrong. Spoke to a few reps. It's grandstand seating. 2 rows high on one side and 3 rows on the other. It will severely limit our view of the pitch. The back few rows of 103-104 should be fine. By the front rows are all getting screwed.
 
I'm just saying if the put seats that block our few, they better have a plan to make us happy.

May we should have a class action suit if there's no remedy offered? The whole point of our legal system is for resonable men to have a method of recorse if we're being treated unfairly (I'd even say swindled) in a business dealing and the other party is not offering to settle with us civilly. If enough of us partake, we may actually get them to respond before it ever goes to court.

A reasonable man would actually sit in the seats for a game before threatening legal action.
