How big have the GA pits been?

Brain of Josh

Just curious if it's a small portion of the floor or more like half the floor or whatever. I have 2 shows coming up next week with pit tickets and won't be able to get there super early to get a great spot but am interested to know that maybe if the pit isn't that big I'll still be in a good spot anyway. Anybody who's been to a show so far let me know or even better if you have a picture that shows how big it is that would be cool to. Thanks in advance.

I walked into the LA show about 6:10 yesterday. Only about the front 1/3 of the pit was full. I'd say it's about 1/3 of the floor, but you can get pretty close even if you arrive (relatively) late.

Incidentally, the Forum's floor is significantly larger than a normal arena's. Even with the extra reserved floor seating, the PJ GA pit there is probably the largest of any of the arena dates on the tour.

If we want to lay low towards the back is there some room or is the whole pit packed tight? is there a rail at the back at all? thanks!

I would assume it is like prior tours and there is plenty of room in the back of the pit. 

We tend to arrive late and just hang out where it isn't too crowded. That is the perfect setup for us.

I was in the very back of the pit for LA1 against the rail between Jeff & Eddie at it was tight.

Think I might have ran into you. I stopped at the back to say hi to a friend in B and some dudes from ATL mentioned they were at Foo Fighters pre-Super bowl show in ATL (shirt I was wearing).

Pit looked pretty tight throughout based on pics taken from behind the stage

Yep that was us! Ya, I think it was pretty tight all around.  We had reserved seats on Stone's side for night 2 and the pit looked just as tight as night 1 did.
