Big House Seat Information?
I'm taking my two 12 year olds to our second annual trip to Big House from California. Homecoming game against Illinois! Section 6, row 58. I bought 4 tickets but wife can't come this year. So I'm selling 4th one if anyone is interested. Question I have is, are there any seating charts which show the actual seat numbers? I'd rather sell the seat furthest from the aisle but I can't seem to find anything online which shows the actual seat numbers.
Any help would be much appreciated. Also, selling face value $90 so let me know if you're interested.
Thanks!
GO BLUE!!

you may want to mention which game if you want to sell the ticket :)

I edited to add that it's Illinois game.

I'd keep the 4th ticket for extra elbow room.

But if there's an MGBlogger out there in need of 1, better that they can go!

We probably have an expert here on each section.
For the non-corner sections, seats 12 & 13 will generally be the aisle seats, in my experience. Where the sections curve in the corners there might not be an easy answer, though.
EDIT: never mind; I see Section 6 Row 58. I can't help you with that, it's a corner section.
I can tell you that you will be right next to an entryway--that's one of the sections with entries at both row 72 and row 56. You will probably have a shorter row because of that.

A good rule, I think, is that seat numbers in the low to mid teens are the aisle seats.
So if you have seats 5-6-7-8, then seat #8 will be closest to the aisle. If you have seats 17-18-19-20, then seat #17 will be closest to the aisle.

www.mgoblue.com. There is an interactive seating chart there. Just start going through the process to buy tickets for the Illinois game and you can see exactly where your seats are in that section and row.

^THIS. This is how I always check the seat locations and it's the only source I've found so far that I can do that for both row #s and seat #s.
As an aside, a pet peeve of mine is that I always see the same four tickets for sale on StubHub and they're listed as "aisle" seats. I bought them for the Northwestern game last year and they were actually in the middle of the row, so my family had to climb over about 15 people to get to them. The person selling them probably gets a premium for them by lying and saying they're aisle seats. I complained to StubHub but heard nothing back. This is why I always check out every set of tickets I buy.

Call back again and talk to someone different. Explain to them how the seats were misrepresented and that you bought them solely because they were aisle seats. Tell them how you could have purchased closer seats for a cheaper price. You will probably get comped a little bit. That has been my experience at least.

Thanks for the tip. I went onto mgoblue.com and there was a single ticket in the next row so I was able to see which of our "end seats" was closest to the aisle (2 seats away). Will definitely sell the one closer to the middle!

I will be at this one, and I am kind of excited to see Hank Aaron as honorary captain. I would never be able to get close enough, but I wouldn't mind getting my copy of "Home Run: My Life In Pictures" signed if possible,. Of course, since you can only basically bring you into the stadium, that's a pipe dream.

Hank Aaron was the special guest at the Atlanta satellite camp this summer. Harbaugh wore a Hank Aaron braves jersey and Aaron showed up and talked to the kids.

I had a similar situation last year. Call or email the ticket office. They were able to get me an answer within about 30 secs regarding where my seats were in relation to the aisle.

if you can't get a definitive answer from the sources people have mentioned, maybe call up the ticket office? i'm sure they can tell you.

In Row 58 of Section 6, Seats 11 and 17 are on the aisle. They are separated by the tunnel to the concourse. You get farther from the aisle as the seat numbers go below 11 as the seat numbers go above 17. You enter at row 56.
