Cajundome Seating Guide, What Local Fans Say Works Best
(KMDL-FM) One of your favorite musical groups is coming to Lafayette's Cajundome, or perhaps the Cajundome is hosting the monster trucks your kid likes, or maybe Ragin' Cajun Basketball is your thing- yep, that's a Cajundome deal too. Our venue for sports and entertainment offers lots of great seats but we all know there can be a seat that's a little better than the others, right?
How is "Best Seat" at Lafayette's Cajundome Defined?
The definition of "best seats" is in the eye or perhaps the buttocks of the beholder or ticketholder or you know what I mean. We all have that one friend that loves to lean up against the subwoofer and interrupt their heart rhythms. While we also know others that are "top of the building away from the crowd" or, in the case of we older concertgoers, "a spot near the bathrooms" would figure into how we choose what we call, "best seats".

We did some snooping online and visited a few online forums where people discussed what made one seat better than another. The basic criteria appear to boil down to these basic concepts.
What Makes a Good Seat the Best Seat?
The view - How well can you see what you paid your money to see. Is the view the same from my seat, or will I be standing up the entire time?
The sound - Some people want to hear the music at a concert, so the acoustics are very important to them. The Cajundome has a unique acoustical profile. We have talked to many artists who have played the venue. They have good things to say, which means you have good things to hear, which is important at a concert.
Am I Involved - In events like wrestling and college basketball, crowd participation is a must. It makes the show in wrestling and in basketball; ask the coach, it wins the game. So proximity means something when you're shopping for tickets too.
The Price - Yeah, we considered that too. You won't find any Suite Seats or Pit Passes or Front Row or even floor on our list. That may be some people's idea of a "best seat," but we're passing on that definition.

So, enough of the setup; let's get to the list now that you understand how it was created. We'd love your feedback. Feel free to share or share this with a friend the next time they are considering purchasing tickets.
