Editor's Notes

July 31, 2019:

The right stadium seats can make all the difference between enjoying a game and suffering through it. Bleachers at the stadium, high-school gym, or little-league park are notoriously uncomfortable, and for those with back problems, they can be a deal breaker.

Things you want to look for in a good stadium seat include easy portability, arm rests (which all of our selections have), generous padding, and water resistance so you can use it outside without worrying about damage. Some of our selections even include pockets for storing small items and cup or can holders so you can jump up to cheer without spilling.

In this update, we evaluated the options based on comfort, support, and value. Added the Sportneer Padded Cushion in one of the top slots because you get two in the shipment and because of their thick padding where it counts most.

He now lives and works in the inter-mountain West where he creates technical and marketing content, including white papers, solution briefs, and courseware for some of the world’s largest information technology companies.

When he’s not writing about business computing, he can be found outdoors, probably hiking with his family and dog.
