Eh, maybe its the park, but I've sat behind the 1st base line for playoff games and the bleachers for WS games last year during the Giants run, and the bleachers are honestly more fun - and at AT&T, a pretty damn good view (ie, the Ian Kinsler near-HR that bounced back was right in front of us). I also think the bleachers etc are a lot more fun - the seated crowd didn't want to stand / get excited in the same way as the rest of the crowd did, no going crazy, etc etc. Then again, I'm 28, and I'm guessing you and Ksyrup are both in the late 40's.
