Section 217 at Kohl Center

I liked these better than I thought I would — There's nothing overly exciting about sitting in a corner section, but these seats were a lot better than I was expecting. First off, you're kind of elevated above the student section. Watching them sway and chant in unison was a treat in itself. You also have a really good view of everything going on in the visitor team huddle, which is pretty much right in front of you.

Row A is the first row in this section and the angle of the seats towards the court was pretty good. Seat 1 is on the right aisle. Being anywhere on the aisle in the 200 level is ideal for getting in and out easily since you only have ten rows or so to climb up or down.

One potential issue with being in the first row is the railing. Unlike a lot of railings, it's not that high. It's probably less than three feet, which is awesome for seeing the game. I hate when the railing obstructs the view. Anyways, the short railing might be kind of dangerous for young kids. It wouldn't be that hard for one to climb over it or tumble over it. So if you are in Row A, keep an eye on the kids. Or try to sit a row or two back.
