Hey, I'm new to the forum and just moved back to MB after being out of province for ten years. Getting season seats this year and curious where you think the best value is for a season seat? 

Personally, I'm a fan of P4 seating... had seats in 207 at the 40-45 yard line for a few years that were great.  Moving over to 209 this year, so same spot on the field, opposite side of centre.

I like the upper deck because I like to see the whole field and the pricing at P4 is reasonable to me considering how close to centre field I am.

I really dont think there is a bad seat in the joint. Id  go up and as much to the middle as you can afford. Could make a joke about the yards our D gives up, and our low TD numbers making the best seats in the end zone. But its a new year and hope springs eternal. (till the first loss any way)

upper deck in the first 5 rows is my personal favourite.

Nice username.  Have to agree with Bigblue.  If you can get in that "overhang" in the upper deck, anywhere between the 25's, you're in great seats.

Though I agree with you guys on the quality of the seats in those first few rows, I believe the seats further back (ie. P4) are better value.  That being said, it comes down to what you can afford as well.

there are no bad seats in that place...it's really spectacular. Last summer we were in the cheapest seats in the building and it was a phenomenal view for the game. Loved every second....

Extreme top corner of the North east upper deck is my favorite. Great view of the field, the nearest jumbotron keeps you in the action, and great for people-watching the concourse below. Usually lots of room to spread out unless its a sellout. Cheapest seats in the house.

Sent you a PM.

I'm probably leaning toward P7 on the ends for the first season. Just to try it out. The price point seems really good at that level. 

 

I was also curious about how the youth pricing goes. I've got a 2 and a half year old. Does he require his own seat/ticket at that age?

If you're looking at endzones may i suggest the South, much more family friendly environment. If you're familiar with Canad Inns stadium section S has been moved to the North Endzone by the rum hut.

Hey everyone, thanks for the suggestions.  Was at Fanfest this morning and picked up a couple season tickets in section 202 row 5. Noeller is right, not a bad seat in that joint. A huge thanks to Blair for taking the time today to show me the seats!

Nicely done! I just emailed the ticket office about getting some Flex Pack seats up in corner of section 201. I recently started a new job just off campus and get to drive past the stadium every day... makes me all antsy in the pantsy. Can't wait for the season to start.

Also if you are bringing your kid to the games... please, for the love of all that is decent and good... don't dress him in green!

Because we are monsters

Can't friggin wait for summer holidays. We'll be around for the July 1 game @Gappers and at the home opener on the 7th vs Cgy. Haven't been at a home opener since 2007 so it'll be a dandy!

That's just a rule for life, never mind just the game...

Right behind me. Welcome to 202.

Truth... not even St. Patty's day is a good enough reason for me to wear green.

Started off P5 (sec 204, can't recall the row) back in 2013, upgraded a year later to P4 (sec 208, row 20), and then moved down to row 12 for the 2015 season - been there since. Pretty much smack dab on the 55-yard line and we're two seats from the aisle. Great seats at a very reasonable price.

I wound up in section 203 instead of 201 this year. Pretty nice seats as far as sightlines are concerned and the price is right.

Section 8 for me..but that's not necessarily by choice...

My wife and I have our seats in section 109 right behind the away team bench. Excellent for heckling and awesome when the place is really bumping.

Close enough that when you hit a player with a beer bottle, he stays down.

Anywhere but the endzones are very good seats...i just don't like view from there - hard to tell how many yards they gained when going away from you, especially if you are lower down in the seats.   End zones are OK in super large stadiums where there is an upper deck but that isn't the case at IGF  If you are one of those people who just like to be there and don't really watch the game with some intensity I suppose they are OK too...

Was over there for my first couple of years at IGF .. was a great spot .. now behind the Bomber bench.  

I'm in the corner P7's.  My business partner is lower bowl, 40 yard line, 8 rows up behind the visitors bench.   I like my seats a little better, the overhead view is nice, adn the angle in the corner means you are looking up the field at an angle, so no neck craning like we had the first season at IGF when we were P&'s across the isle from the P6's...
