I understand it's 4 different rows, but how many seats per row? Is it 20 seats per row, which means 80 seats in the lottery?

...is it so wrong to think that love can keep us safe?
By the Numbers for MSG:
There are 38 seats in Row 1 and 2 so 76 seats there and there are 44 seats in Rows 9 and 10 which is 88 seats
88+76=164 seats divided by 2
82 pairs of lottery tickets.

Rows 1,2 and 9 and 10. There may not always be exactly 164 seats among these rows, but I'm sure it doesn't vary much between venues.
It's probably pretty standard for arena shows though. Amphitheatres may have a slightly different configuration from venue to venue.....
Either way, you are probably looking at no more than 100 pairs of tickets . . . .

Yeah, I know the Tweeter Center in Boston (okay, Mansfield) is almost exactly the same layout as the New England Dodge Music Center (or whatever they're calling it now) in Hartford, but the Hartford venue is considerably smaller. I imagine given the "slice of pie" layout they have Mansfield would have more seats in each row.
The numbers I gave are for MSG, not sure how many seats are in each row in Boston, but it will be in the same ballpark probably.

i believe the have the entire row. we were sitting in front of david crosby at one show!
also...good estimate is 40 seats across per row.
So for MSG, which holds about 19,500 for an end stage show, it should be just under 2,000 tickets or 1,000 pairs.
Which I think works out to about an 8% chance of winning the lottery.
