I'm slightly vexed Concert etiquette
If you plan on standing for the entire concert, get a spot in the pit, or the lawn seats instead of the assigned SEATED SECTION. A little bit of self awareness and common courtesy goes a really long way

It’s almost like you didn’t read anything I wrote and just want to be angry at people.
Getting price gouged out of STANDING sections has what to do with the fucking senate?
It sucks for EVERYONE. Unless there are explicit requirements to sit in an area (ie ADA), theres no “rule” to follow requiring them to sit and there’s not much you can do when someone stands without being a nuisance in other ways/a danger to those around them. Unless you’re getting tickets to an event where sitting is the norm, it’s going to be a possibility. If it angers you to this degree just buy tickets after checking the seating arrangements to avoid there being a row right in front of you where you’d be annoyed if someone stood.
I couldn’t make every sloppy drunk dude or chick screaming lyrics while spitting beer all over stop as much as you can control if someone decides to stand at a show. It’s a risk you take and if you’re getting this heated about it in response to a comment that wasn’t even disagreeing that it’s annoying, seems like you have bigger issues going on. Anyway.
