So, will GA Pit be an Obstructive view for Floor Seats?

Hey. Going to Dallas & OKC. Noticed today TM shows a new floor layout with larger GA Pit in OKC.
Based on Wrigley and London could anyone say if GA Pit will obstruct floor views?
Wouldn't they put a spacer in there to help? Anyone know someone that has the answers?
Cheers!

    I've been in the back part of a seated floor. At 6'1", I had a hard time seeing the stage.
    You are better off in an elevated section, than the back half of the floor.

    I am SO hoping the 10 club reserved are side stage. Fingers crossed.
    Don't come closer or I'll have to go

    they seem to be seated-side and back of the floor.

    10c should give those up in the future if possible and get more seated. I would rather be anywhere else in the arena as opposed to back of floor (with the exception of MSG which has risers).

    I don't see why it would be. No different than if the whole floor was seats and everyone was standing

    I had floor seats back in 2003, 10c waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay in the back floor seats (row 42 or something at the Key), the entire floor was seated.

    At 5'1", I tried standing on my seat, and got the :nono:

    So, I just listened to the show.

    At Calgary, I had floor seats (in the middle) and was in the aisle...that worked really well since security was really strict about keeping people out of the aisle.

    But are you saying you're gonna sit in your floor seats? :?

    Here is what the email I received says.

    "Reserved seated tickets are being held for the Ten Club in some of the best seat locations in the house, which include floor seats behind the GA pit and 100 level seats"

    So yes it there will be "seats" behind the GA. The thing is that no one sits anyway so you basically have a reserved spot back on the floor.

    I'd imagine lower numbers get the wings and higher numbers get back of the floor. My number's not that great and that got me back of the floor at MSG which actually worked out better than middle of the floor because it used to be elevated (don't know about it now post renovations).

    However, I wouldn't call floor behind the pit "obstructed" view. Yes, if you are short you will likely be staring at people's heads. That's the downside of the floor. The upside is I find the energy to be loads better!

    So floor seat people usually stand....okay. Sounds like I should have gone for GA since I'll stand anyway. But I didn't want to "lose" the lottery. So hope it works out...I'm new to 10c since spring.
    I'm 6'2", but the people I'm going with are 5'5". At least my wife can wear heals. At the other show my shorter friend is a guy. Perhaps we'll get him some cowboy boots. :D

    It doesnt matter. Back of floor is pretty much a no-see show.

    Standing is a must as everyone will be standing. You do get your seat and your own area which is an advantage over GA.

    We will see how they manage the allocation. It seems like it used to go pretty much: Front of Floor >>>>>> Seats >>>>>>mid floor >>>>>> more seats >>>>>> back of floor >>>>>>> further away seats


    If I get floor seats, I am really going to walk around and try to trade them.

    I'd rather be in the rafters than @ the back of the GA section... impossible to see. Unless the back is elevated like MSG.
