Believe me, when I request a different seat because of space, I am thinking of my neighbour at least as much as I of myself. I am often aching at the end of a show after contorting my frame to keep from impinging on the space of my neighbours. I am always glad when a show is poorly sold so I can move back and have a seat on either side of me.
Boxes are a godsend, despite the sometimes less-than-perfect vantage point. And if I am in one and someone is sitting behind me, I always offer to change places since because of my largesse, I tend to sit higher than a thinner person of my height. |
