I looked up the policy while I was seated there. I think the chair was right at the limits at the base.

However, with the angled back, it goes past that 16". So, it would be a debate with the person and usher. I think would win.

Buried in a thread below, but needs reposting: If you take this kind of chair to the stadium, you are a terrible person

I've honestly never seen that kind of chair at LES. That is terrible.

I have a few times. They are cheap, and probably comfortable, which is why people buy them. But they're evil.

Couldn't agree more. If the back of the chair isn't perpendicular/90 degrees

I'd start off by asking nicely. After which I'd do just this.

Yeah the 'rule' says depth, the angled back should definitely be included in

But you know they would fold up the chair to have the usher measure it. That's where the debate would come in.

I have stadium chairs, but, they do not extend past the back of the bench.

Hoopster

Mine too. And they latch under the front of the bench so they don't slide back.

Does it fit in the stadium rules? If not, report it.

I use this cushion. I'm good with no back as long as I have some extra padding.

I wish they’d just add chair seating to the entire stadium benches are the worst

Easy solution: Don't sit with the plebes in the bleachers.

Wrong! The front row on the East side is bleachers.

Problem is not the chair? The problem is the inconsiderate idiots who think it

They shouldn't even be allowed. That's ridiculous.

This is why stadium attendance is dying

It's mainly because the on-field product sucks so much, but this certainly doesn't help.

jdub

10/23/18 12:20pm

Probably wider than the 18" your allowed, but who police's it.

Count Cougar

10/23/18 12:41pm

The depth was more a concern than the width, for me anyway, since I was sitting behind.

jdub

10/23/18 12:47pm

The chair is fine, he's just scooting it way back

chazen

10/23/18 1:10pm

As I posted elsewhere, the base dimensions, when folded, are probably 18 X 16, as is in the rules. However...

I always bring my recliner lounger. It's very comfortable.

What ever happened to just folding up a sweatshirt or blanket?

ochobeeguy

10/23/18 2:18pm

I bring a chair to keep the people next to me from taking my space.

So you can obviously identify with those in the caravan trying to invade the US!

How about going to a stadium that actually has a seat instead of a bleacher.

10/23/18 4:40pm

This looks like the same chair and it's not compliant based on the dimensions

ManicBlue

10/23/18 4:43pm

You're right. It's 1" too wide. But, I'm also contending that, with the angle of the back, it is more than 16" deep

jdub

I agree that it's completely unacceptable. The one I use goes straight up from

This is a good reason to redo the stadium. Benches are sooooo tight!
