    Which seats would you choose?

    I am about to buy some tickets to a AA game in Chattanooga for a game in August (night game). I have the option of selecting seats first row behind home plate or first row behind either dug out.

    Which would you choose? The only downfall I can see from sitting behind home plate is the net. I like to take pictures so that would be an issue. But I also have never sat behind home plate and feel like it could really be an awesome experience.

    Sitting behind the dugout would be awesome views with my camera. I'd def bring my glove with me for foul balls.

    Pricing is about the same.

    dugout. theres no screen to block your view, you can get a ball easier, and you can use the dugout as a table for your food

    As a photographer myself depending on the quality of equipment you use there should be zero issue with the netting if you focus properly.

    Just be careful for this

    I'm hoping to see him pitch.

    I bought seats right behind home plate. All the seats behind the dugout are taken. I can get the 2nd row behind the dugout so I might do that for the 2nd game (if i decide to do 2 games). I'll make that decision by tomorrow.

    I'm not much into autographs but would be nice to get a picture by some of these prospects.
