Jpan85 Posted March 19, 2016 Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 I have row one sec 202 all there is metal cable you can see over it so its all good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueballz Posted March 20, 2016 Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 Sat in both upper and lower deck and to be honest...front rows in the upper deck are the way to go...you get to see more...but that's just my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wbbfan Posted March 20, 2016 Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 my 2c having sat all over the stadium not being a season ticket holder any more, isnt a seat in the house to worry about being stuck in. Maybe too close to the rum hut if you dont like drunk people lol. Ive never hesitated on seats due to location and i dont think ill ever regret it.

Bomber_fanaddict Posted March 21, 2016 Report Share Posted March 21, 2016 I sit first row upper deck in 213 (I think it's 213 lol) and must say I LOVE these seats. Cheapest in the house for a very nice view. The cable doesn't pose any issue to see through. I haven't sat in many other areas of the stadium so I can't say much on a comparison.

Bigblue204 Posted March 21, 2016 Report Share Posted March 21, 2016 I sit in row 2 section 211. 209 row 1 would be a dream!! TAKE THEM!! TAKE THEM NOW!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itchy Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 Good to know!! I just moved from section 208 row 17 to section 209, row 3,and was worried about the sight lines. That's right where I thought I would want to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Pop Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 Seems like it's moving season down at IGF. We were just contacted as well about moving seats. Previously section 209, row 9 (?) and now moving closer to midfield and a few rows up. Is it June yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taynted_Fayth Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 guess it's testament to people who've claimed they werent renewing their seasons after last few futile seasons, but more specifically a little pissed at the GC ticket fiasco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALuCsRED Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 What's the grey cup ticket fiasco? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Im not mistaken, they made season ticket holders buy their tickets when they reupped at a certain amount like $300+. then when they had to reallocate people who bought tickets for much less in the North end zone, they ended up getting better seats at that reduced price. or something along those lines, it irked a lot of people cuz i think it actually ended up costing season ticket holders more for their tickets then people just buying walk up, but was a mandatory thing for holders. I think they offered some kind of compensation but it still falls flat. It's been a while since I heard what the issue is, so parts of this could be ad lib lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALuCsRED Posted March 23, 2016 Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 I had friends that got moved up. I'm sure they would have felt better knowing they had seats for the game, instead of thinking their seats were now the stairwell. That sounds like quite the petty problem. Boo hoo, someone paid less for something than me. It happens everyday. Honestly, I was at the game, the weather was great, and the game was close. How could it not have been a great grey Cup?

Taynted_Fayth Posted March 23, 2016 Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 I think it was more icing on the cake, because I know a few people who had zero interest in the GC unless the bombers were in it. but as season ticket holders I believe they made you pay for a ticket with your seasons, and so to see others get bumped up in an event they lost interest in the moment their team was out, and paid a decent amount for (some will argue it's only $300 but i'd consider that an expense I'd like to avoid if I could) on top of the way the teams been for so long.... I'm just saying there might be a reason for all the openings on upgrading seats for seasons. I dont know how other years fare in this regard, but it sounded like a lot of people gave up after last year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jpan85 Posted March 23, 2016 Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 You were not forced to buy grey cup tickets if you locked in for 3 season you got a $100 dollars off ticket.. Westy Sucks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taynted_Fayth Posted March 23, 2016 Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 again it's been a while since I heard the reason people were put off. that discount wasnt offered immediately was it, and even then I dont think some people wanted to lock in for 3 years, not with the way the on field product has been Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The issue with the discount & 3 year deal came much later when they started giving the same discount to certain groups without them having to lock into a contract.

ALuCsRED Posted March 23, 2016 Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 Back to the original topic, I've sat in Section 234 Row 17, Section 228 Row 5 and now Section 229 Row 6. The views are pretty good from all locations. The camera man issues on the West Upper deck were resolved with the low slung cameraman seats. The fans are great on our side of the stadium. I decided to move to row 6 as that row on our side (in section 228) had great legroom. Hopefully section 229 is the same as 228. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duchkal2 Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 If you want, look at the interactive virtual stadium on the website. http://bluebombers.io-media.com/web/index.html# You can see Section 209 row 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TransconaBomberfan Posted March 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 I did checkout the virtual view but find it is a lot different in person. I sat front row sec 107 behind visitors bench and the virtual view for those seats wasn't great. I had the best time great view of the whole field visitor players interacting with us was great. I'd take those seats if they came available. Taynted_Fayth 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taynted_Fayth Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 I cant remember the section i was in but it was on the north 50 behind the ticats bench, i dunno about other teams but a few ticats like norwood interacted with the fans which was fun to watch. but yeah i agree, sitting too close to the field is a bit rough watching the down field stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And honestly, I think a lot of people laughed at them when they wanted a 3 yr commitment. Like Bombers...you've seen the product on the field lately, right? With 5,000 empty seats every game, what the hell incentive was there for fans to commit? Anywho, old news now. Here's hoping the next GC here is managed much, much (much) better.

Super Duper Negatron Posted April 7, 2016 Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 (edited) 210 Row 5, and I love the view. The concourse is too tight obviously, but the stadium has proved to be amazing for watching football.
