S OC Not my story, but from a friend who volunteers at our local performing arts theater: "Yesterday I was an usher in the orchestra - this is a pretty good position since most of the patrons are season ticket holders and they know where they are going so it's not a lot of work. However.....one older woman came up to me yesterday and started to complain about her seat, saying that she had to bend her neck. She went on about how she "spe

These rows are labeled "AA", "BB", "CC" and "DD". When we examined her ticket, she had a seat for row "A" - four rows back!

For the briefest of moments she thought she won, until she realizes that literally everyone has their eyes on her for the entire time.

    Font - Fredredphooey 1 hr. ago 4 th and 5 th rows are absolutely ideal. Front row is usually bad. Did she even sit in the seat? This makes no sense.
