Although I've never sat on the side I have to think sitting in the back is better. That way you can watch the shape of the shot and everything else from the player's angle. I'll be there but I'll be one of the people you guys always get pissed at in the front row. I do enjoy the event though, I'm not just some corporate guy that is forced to be there.

Holy f--- it costs that much for a ticket?? I know it's a major and this is my favorite major but damn.


To be honest I've sat at the foul line area on the side before at a PBA show (2001, Dallas when Ritchie Allen won his first title) and I think I paid like 25 bucks if even that. I've also been to a couple of Rolls to Riches and sat in the similar area and personally it is a strange view but definitely not worth no 75 dollars unless your in the back. Also....it's amazing how skinny the lane looks from the "foul line" and I remember watching so many bowling in match play the entire day I saw Barnes and Weber go at it and gave me a headache.

 I've also seen match play events on the television set down by the pins and I will tell you and you get whiplash. I think the announcers are down lane now then behind for whatever reason. You can see what the bowler does right or wrong but looking at the bowler's release to the pocket is annoying after so many frames. I think if I was going to the Open and was already paying 75$ I'd go for the 95
