    for pdc once you get reserved seats you get to renew them. you get a renewal notice in March an have a month to renew it. whatever doesn't get renewed comes avail a month later. getting any seat esp back stretch is near impossible let alone an isle seat. most renew their seats every year. some don't even show is the problem. group that sits behind me hasn't showed up in 2 years. the ones beside me hasn't showed in 3 years.

      as far as illini it's never an issue getting a seat. an they charge you general admission upfront for reserved an that's why many don't do reserved seats. I did reserved this year for illini just because I was going to be pushing for time. all true crown jewels you renew your seats.

        I have heard that FALS is going to make you pay full price of seat when you buy reserved. That would help free things up but we will see if the ever implement.

          I asked that last year and said that would take away from being cost efficient for the fans. as I ask because I take a group of 25 every year. as that rumor was flying around a couple years ago. an the seats in backstretch are small so if your just above average you have to reserve 2 seats. an then they have to find away to do kids seats as kids under 12 are free.

            I have reserved Backstretch seats at FALS. We pay $10/seat to reserve, and full price admission for the weekend. It's been that way for 4 years now. I'm alirght w that. The PDC is always a great weekend!

              yes that is correct but they are saying the new change is when you reserve your seat you pay your general admission with that all up front. so not just your $10 per seat you would pay your 10 plus 55 per seat upfront.

                yes it's all "rumored" that's how it's going to be but I've heard that for a few years. I asked that back then and was told that way wouldn't be cost efficient for family's/ fans. But now it being a "business" will see.

                  There are usually some open seats on backstretch when people don't show up for some reason or another, they are essentially losing money on the no shows right now.

                      What to stop you from reserving 3-4 seats and using them for space, I'm sure there's people doing that...

                        I rather have that room then to crowd more people in an people are sitting on top of each other. as you know seats are small there. either way they do it I'll reserve the same I always have. even though I did give up 15 seats 2 years ago. my point is they go to full admission then when u get there u got a big guy next to you or adults reserving seats at kids price.

                          Solution:

                          Someone buys a kid's seat at adult price, give them a voucher to print. Present voucher at the gate with the kid present, and get refunded the difference.

                          If you don't present the voucher, you pay adult price.

                              As popular as PDC is, whoever gives up their reserved seats most likely will never get them back.
                              I for one have no plans to ever give mine up.
                              Especially after this year! 😉
