FINALLY!!!!!!!

Just ordered my two. Now when people try to sneak an extra person in the row and look at me when the whole row doesn't fit as though I need to scoot over, I'm gonna say "sorry, I'm in my seat". No mistaking now.

I'm in the south end zone and ordered my three this morning, for all of the reasons stated above. Great idea.

my seats are already chairback, but when I do sit in a bleacher seat and the "extra" people show up, man that pisses me off, you have to literally get up, point to the number on the bleacher, and say buddy, I'm in my seat, why don't you get in yours. Then they come back with "we're all LSU fans".

+1 for LSU on the seatbacks

In the early 1980s, you could rent seatbacks for maybe 50 cents or a buck for home games. They were heavy red metal covered by a thin layer of musty canvas. I always thought they looked like something you'd pick up from an Army surplus store.

In the 1982 Florida State "Fog Game", when people ran out of oranges, stadium cups, and nachos to try to throw on the field, a few of the seatbacks went next. It was surreal to see them flying through the air alongside the oranges in the fog.

That was the last game where you could rent seatbacks.
THIS WAS NOT THE LAST GAME YOU COULD RENT THE SEATS.
i rented out the seats for that game and 1983.i think i also did 1984.im not certain on 1984.
in 82 and 83 they rented for 1.50 each game.
got paid 8.00 a game in 82 and 12.00 in 83.
but got to watch game for free after about halfway thru first quarter.
