The Seldom Scene Fairfax Concert reviews
Charger victory obstructed.
My $70 seat had a view obstructed by the field. First, there was the "tunnel" entrance/exit guardrail in front of the top-deck seating area that limited my view of two-thirds of the field to the right. The constant flow of people coming in and out of the "tunnel" entrance/exit, along with those who would stop at the guardrail to watch the field action, blocked the view of around 25-30 people trying to watch from their seats. A study should be conducted to determine if seats like mine should be removed or sold for half price. The seat and view were definitely not worth $70. I felt completely ripped off.
