Hockeytown0001 7,652 Report post Posted November 8, 2008 Not at all. I sat in section 218 in like row 22 for a playoff game back in 07, the seats are great. Very easy to see the plays develop from a higher seat. And thats one of the great seats about the Joe, I have yet to hear anyone complain about an obstructed view seat ANYWHERE in the arena.

digitaljohn88 4 Report post Posted November 8, 2008 (edited) There's a big difference between row 22 and 27 in this case. Obstructed kind of puts you in an enclave up top. I wouldn't worry though. I've been to 3 games and in every one we've moved down 10-15 rows in the first period to some nice seats. The Joe is not usually full anymore.

SouthernWingsFan 854 Report post Posted November 8, 2008 I've been to JLA a couple of times, and the few times I went everywhere I sat was good, nothing obstructed. That's a benefit you typically get when the arena is a simple bowl shape without a lot of decks/sections. I went to college in the Dallas-Fort Worth area and saw few Stars games during the time when they used to play in Reunion Arena before going to AA. Reunion Arena was as simple as a design as well. Just a bowl with one lower and one upper section, not a bad seat in the house. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dadair 0 Report post Posted November 8, 2008 The reason they're obstructed view is because once you get past row 24 in the corners the seats aren't on a riser. Row 25, 26 & 27 are all on a platform behind each other. It would be like sitting on the main floor for a concert. As long as you stand you'll be fine.
