I replied too. I was honestly going to wait until I sat through a full game in my own seat with people on either side of me. TBH, I haven't had the full cramped experience, since there aren't that many people who sit in the balcony preseason (including me). But I can't envision it being good. Certainly not as good as last year.
I even wrote WCVB and the Globe. WCVB asked if I could come to the Garden, but it wasn't exactly convenient...plus, my phone died, so I didn't really get to finish my dialogue with them. At least the story's gone from just boston.com to the local networks and newspapers. I'd love to hear some chants tomorrow. Or maybe we'll hear "Stuck In The Middle With You" for my #bruinsbeats.
I don't see a good solution. If they reverted my section, they'd have a bunch of people orphaned when they take one seat out per row. That's not going to work. Roll back prices and give me back the $5 per seat per game hike that they had this year, plus an ironclad promise that they won't increase prices for the next two years, and will then revert to the old seating after that? Seems unlikely.
