I was looking at White Sox/Yankees tickets and it got me thinking. Where do you like to sit when you go to a game?

I've sat from the cheapest seats in the whole stadium to behind the plate. I think my favorite seats are actually in the upper deck right in line with first or third base. I normally take the money I would have spent on the tickets in the lower deck and use it for more food/beer. I think the view is great, as is directly behind the catcher even in the upper deck.

My least favorite seats were probably the bleachers. It was cool to look at it from a different angle but I found it harder to follow the pitcher/batter matchup because it was much farther away.

Ideal spot for me would be first level along the first or third baseline, far enough back to be covered by the second deck...

...least favorite was being in the very last row of the upper deck in center field at Busch II...

I like the seats that are parallel to the first or third baseline, front row in the upper deck about in line with the bases. Nobody to get in the way when they're standing up to go to the bathroom or a concession run or just be a damned inconsiderate tool at random intervals. You can see the entire field there, so that's probably one of my favorite options

I've always wanted to sit behind home plate then call people and ask if they can see me waving on TV.

Pretty sure you could walk up anytime you want and do that in Cinncy. Plenty of good seats available!
