Oh... i don't know... If somebody shows up at noon and ropes off 20 seats I think it's unlikely that these 20 people out there shopping for 5 hours.
Perhaps a few folks could get there at 10 AM (on Rocky & Rollers night) and rope off rows and rows of seats. Then come back at 4:45 or so and just remove the ropes. Beat the "reservers" at their own game.
