Sometimes, stuff just slips out. A number of years ago, a buddy & I went up to the Montreal Forum to see the Habs. We had a mid-level seat. In all the years of going to games there, I had never seen ice level. There was a curtain with an usher at the first level. I explained what we'd like to do and he politely declined. I demurred saying that some people probably just stay there. I added, "But we're not like those other guys." Didn't accomplish anything but to give my buddy ammo for the next 100 years.
