Well, let me tell ya ’bout this Cameron Indoor Stadium, sounds fancy, huh? I ain’t never been there, mind you, but I heard things. They got this thing called a seating chart. Sounds complicated, like one of them maps the city folks use.
Anyways, from what I gather, this place is for watchin’ basketball, Duke Blue Devils they call ’em. Them college kids runnin’ around, throwin’ a ball in a hoop. Now, the important thing is where you sit to watch all this hoopla, right?
They say the best seats, if you ain’t one of them students, are in sections 6, 7, 14 and 15. Makes sense, I guess, those numbers sound important. You wanna see the whole court, they say. Each of them sections got about 15 rows, like them rows of corn in my field, only these rows got chairs. Row A, that’s the closest, like sittin’ right up front at the church social.
- Section 6, 7, 14 and 15: Best views, they say.
- Row A: Closest to the action.
Now, this “stadium seating” or “theater seating”, whatever they call it, it’s just a way of puttin’ the chairs, so everyone can see. Like when we set up chairs for the town meetin’, only fancier, I reckon. They use this kinda seating in all sorts of places, not just for basketball. Theaters, they say, and other big fancy places.
I heard tell there’s a second level too, up above them noisy students. Someone said they sat up there, section somethin’-somethin’, and could see just fine, even across from where the other team sits. They called it “unobstructed view,” sounds like city talk for “ain’t nothin’ blockin’ your sight”. They even took pictures from up there, showin’ the whole shebang.
You can find these seat charts all over, they say. Just search online for “Cameron Indoor Stadium Seating Chart” or “Duke Cameron Stadium Seating Chart”. It’s like lookin’ up a recipe, only instead of findin’ how to make a pie, you’re findin’ where to park your behind. You can even find charts for different games or events they have there, not just basketball I suppose.
They got all sorts of sections, lots of ’em. I ain’t gonna list ’em all, sounds borin’ as watchin’ paint dry. But if you’re goin’, you best look it up, so you don’t end up sittin’ behind a pole or somethin’. That’d be like sittin’ behind the tallest fella at the parade, you ain’t gonna see nothin’ but the back of his head.
This Cameron place, it’s supposed to be historic, they say. An old building, like my old barn, only probably smells a lot better. They’ve been playin’ basketball there for a long time, even before 2002 or 2003, which was a long time ago, from what I hear.
So, if you’re plannin’ on goin’ to see a basketball game at this here Cameron Indoor Stadium, make sure you figure out where you wanna sit. Look at that seat chart, pick a good spot, and enjoy the game. Don’t be like old Bessie, who went to the fair and ended up watchin’ the pig races from behind the manure pile! You wanna see the action, not the back of someone’s head, or worse, nothin’ at all.
This whole seating chart thing, it’s just about findin’ a good place to sit, so you can enjoy yourself. It ain’t rocket science, even this old lady can understand that. Just find a spot that looks good on the chart, and go have fun. And maybe, just maybe, those Duke Blue Devils will win, and everyone will be happy as a clam.
Remember, good seats mean a good view, and a good view means a good time. So do your homework, find that seating chart, and pick a winner!
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I got to go check on my chickens. They don’t need no seating chart, they just know where to roost.
