Oh, don't get me wrong, I sat "at the back of the house" many times in the past. As a matter of fact, when we had season tickets in the early 2000s, our seats consisted of 4 folding chairs that were placed next to the very last row of the upper bowl in Arco/Power Balance/Sleep Train. And, trust me when I say this, those were GREAT seats. The view was fantastic. It also helped, however, that the arena was compact, so you felt as if you were close to the action no matter where you sat.
I just prefer to sit a little lower/closer, and never minded the front row seats when I sat down there. I actually almost prefer to be lower because, as I said, I always felt like I was part of the action slightly more when I sat a few rows down. Most of the time, when I didn't sit all the way in the last row, on the folding chair(s), I was either on Kings Row 1, or in a box/suite (Pepsi or Bud). A few times, I found myself in another part of the lower level, but very rarely did that happen.
