Please tell me you were kidding about this. The seating was terrible and the MLG staff not only refused to buy more chairs for sat-sun, they did not allow people to sit on the floor or bring their own chairs. It was ridiculous.


Yeah, that was awful! MLG definitely isn't going out of their way for the spectators at the event.

They could learn a thing or two from the NASL about how to run a good event. 1 screen with horrible glare from stage lights was the MLG "main stage"? To watch in any other area, you had to either pile up with a bunch of other people and try to watch from over the player's shoulder or sit on the floor.

They should charge $5 more dollars per person an put it towards more screens and bleachers for the spectators.

At least the projectors worked.

But yes, the seating thing was pretty pathetic though. There were some times where I was less concerned with the match or actually had to stop watching because I had been standing for so long. It was a lot better on the first day when the MLG employees allowed people to sit on the floor near the main stage. During the second, they started getting security people to force people without seats to stand. I feel like they should either get more chairs, or let people sit.

I do realize that they may have been trying to enforce fire codes or something by forcing people to stand, but my statement still stands.

Yeah, they may have improved over columbus, but there was WAY too little seating. I can understand not having enough seats, but not letting people sit on the floors, and letting people use the dozens of chairs that were not being used other areas was really dumb. Maybe that was just the convention center, maybe not, but MLG needs to sort that out for Raleigh.

I wonder what made them go with that amount of chairs to begin with. Pre-order sales too low? Venue restrictions? I ended up being there at 8am and bringing food/water to setup camp at my seat. The seat situation created a lot of tension between people and frustration.

Overall, it was an amazing time and I'm really glad I decided to go.
