Ok I'm coming to the board for help. I occasionally do this for things such as sun glasses selection, etc. etc. Well a little background, this is my 2nd year as a season ticket holder, but will be my first coming down from the club seats amongst the common folk (my people!). I've made my "donation" and I was told that the time to move my seats would come later. Well here's my dilemma.

Do I stick with my current seats which are section 1 (west side, farthest south, about 30 rows up).

Or there is a second option I'm contemplating. Now that they are bowling in the south endzone, most of the SEZ is donor or club or whatever. But there are a few that aren't. They are right above where our players would run out of the tunnel. There doesn't look like a lot there, but they aren't club seats and they are the same "donation" amount as mine.

Basically I bring this to the board for advice of pros/cons of each and any opinion yall may have.

Pros for option 1.
30 rows up gives you a decent view of the opposite end zone.
Easy to get to, 2 rows above a walk way of sorts.

Cons.
Being that it's 2 rows above a walk way, you are standing a good portion of the time due to not being able to see above the people walking by. Standing isn't horrible, but my wife isn't a fan of standing the ENTIRE game.

Pros for option 2.
Being above the tunnel sounds cool. Half of my enjoyment of going to games is watching the team warm up, spotting recruits, and just pregame stuff. Being above the tunnel would seem to only enhance that experience.
When they started the whole project, they said they were going to expand each seat a few inches to give you more room. Well I'm assuming that even though these seats won't be club seats, that they will still be expanded since they are new and that's the eventual plan for the whole stadium. So my wife and I would have more room.

Cons.
You're low to the field, so seeing the north end zone action will likely be little to none.
Being low, we'll be standing quite a bit.

So what do yall think? Also please don't chime in about being cheap and not having great seats, I'll get there eventually.
Do you know for a fact if those seats will be wider? (my wife and I aren't fats, we just don't want to rub elbows with one).
