1st Row, 50 yard line:cool::cool::cool:

Just kidding, never got a chance to sit in these, but the field level seats look pretty nice!

Upper level, 50 yard line, lower row is my ideal spot. I actually prefer this over lower level since it's easier to see the entire field and plays develop.

Correct answer!

When I've sat in the FRONT row, end zone, it was awesome when they scored a TD in my end zone as I was RIGHT THERE.
But for any play that was in the further 3/4 of the field, I had no clue if the ball was caught, if the runner made any yardage, etc.
Being above the action actually gives you the depth perception to see a play develop and yards being gained.
It's all about which experience you want.
Also, front row 50 yard line, gets you a view of the players butts.

I can second the upper tier, but as low as possible. Cheaper tickets, but same view - close to the 50 as possible.

Am trying lower behind the endzone for Jags v Texans.

Lucas oil seating is pretty good anywhere. Yeah those are signed by Austin Collie, Jeff Saturday, Dallas Clark and in his first start—Curtis Painter!

Signed by Peyton Manning and was a decent view lol.

Lucks first win and the best view I ever had at a Colts game. I’ve been second row from the very back in 633 and could still see well and enjoy the game. When Luck played I could hear him from those seats lol.

I've sat just about everywhere you can over the years. My favs are:

1. 8th row, lower level, at the 50 (just over the obstructed view seats). Great for seeing what happens on the field and see the coach/player/trainer/ect interaction on the sidelines.

2. Front row endzone. Pre-game, post-game (even during game) interaction with players.

3. Front row field level NOT behind the bench. Same as above.

4. Mid-level front row, 50 yd line. Truly see everything.

The reason they're in that order is going to games expands the experience apart from what I get on the couch. Especially if it's an "away" game where the Saints are the visitors. Players gravitate to you and thank you for supporting outside the Dome.

I like about 40 rows up on the 35 or 40 yard line. Either that or upper deck in the endzone.

At Candlestick I had 2nd row 50 yard line for the mid-season Cowboys/Niners game in ‘94. It sucked, I felt like I had no overview and the standing players blocked some of the action.

For the 2011 playoffs I was on the 35 yard line maybe 40 rows back on the side of the field where Smith ran it in and Vernon Davis made that catch. Great seats.

Had about the same for the NFCCG that year, but the rain made for a tough night. And the fumble.

This is my answer as well. Current NFL is made for the television broadcast. I have no reason to ever attend a live game unless someone gives me tickets and pays for my parking.

Upper level (C deck at Ohio State and 508 for the Browns)

About 5-10 rows up

At home watching 65 inch TV......cheap beer....nice bathroom.....ahhh.

At home. Had season tickets for years but just not worth the trouble after awhile.

I agree 100%. The lower section is *too* low. I want the 50 yard line, first row, 200 or 300 level.

It's VERY likely that the stadium you plan to go to has it's own website, and a "seat finder" that lets you see the view from any seat they have. Just type in the section, row and seat #, and you are shown the view.

We have that in Denver. There's a link in the team's website. Probably there for yours also.

I'm a little bias. I sit in the club level (3rd level), second row, on the 42 yard line. Been there since this stadium opened. There's two seats in the section next to me I like, about 15 feet from mine, but the team owns them and won't swap em with me. I try every year or two though. Those are on the 45.

Unless I get those, I will never give up my seats.

Yes of course. These seats are the most expensive in any stadium. Season tix will run you $3500-5000+. So yeah, buy cards and watch from home would be my advice as a season ticket holder.

Then do not answer this question. Seriously, it says in the stadium. Take your entitled opinion and go away. What a waste. I love watching games in person, and would say upper level around the 50 yard line also. I want to see everything.

I'm not going to go to a game unless it is 100 or 200 level. Otherwise, I'm paying a ton of money to "try" and watch a football game. I want to be able to see the players well and experience the game for the money I'm spending. At 500 level it's like watching game tape.

Yeah I saw a Purdue game from the very front row and couldn’t see much. The upper level at the 50 is about the best. And don’t reply in the thread if you don’t actually go to games just to say how you have a big tv and hate to park. Everybody has a huge tv by now, but they go to live games for the experience.

Both are correct

Went to Lambeau in 07, first row dead 50 yard line. Worst seat I ever had unless there was a play between the 45s. Best seat Tampa club level corner last row, if only because I kept getting blasted with cold air from the inside and never broke a sweat.

Upper level, endzone, first three rows.

I’m not a huge fan of being in the center for football as you can’t really watch plays open up
