Section 19 at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium

(2026 Review) - Sideline Location: Portal Boxes run along the east and west sidelines at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium, positioned above the tunnels.  Semi-Private Setup: Each box is usually a group of 4 seats in its own semi-private space.  Barstool-Style Seating: Sometimes called Barstool Boxes for their small ledges — some have standing areas, others have chairback seats.  Solid Elevated Views: Boxes in even-numbered sections sit near row 40 and offer some of the best overall views of the field.  Know Before You Buy: Beyond extra space, there are no additional amenities — just a slight comfort upgrade over standard seats in these sections.  Who Should Sit Here  The Portal Boxes at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium are a good fit for a small group of up to four who want a bit of semi-private space and a comfort upgrade over standard sideline seating. They're ideal for fans who value elbow room and a strong sideline vantage point, especially those in the even-numbered boxes near row 40.  Portal Box Seating Details  Portal Boxes are found on both the east and west sidelines, located above the tunnels in odd- and even-numbered sections. In even-numbered sections, the boxes sit near row 40. On the seating chart, box rows are labeled BX to indicate they are portal box seats.  Views from the Portal Boxes  These Portal Boxes offer excellent sideline views of the field. Your exact perspective depends on the location of your box, with options ranging from near midfield to closer to the end zones along the sidelines.  What to Expect  Aside from more room for your group, Portal Boxes don't come with additional benefits or amenities — think of them as a slight comfort upgrade rather than a fully premium space. 

- The Upper Level Corner seating location receives elevated views of the action and good sitelines towards midfield. If you choose seats in Sections 1, 3, 17 or 19, you'll have the benefit of being in the shaded in the early afternoon. And if you're in the last ten rows of those sections, you'll also be covered in the case of rain.  Select portions of sections 43-51 are designated for visitor seating, so these areas are likely to have a lot of opposing fans. Each section has 39-45 numbered rows. In sections 1, 3, 43 and 45, these rows begin directly after the lower level. But in Sections 47-51 and 61-65 the first 12 rows are on their own seating deck and all seats feature chairs with backs.
