Here is The Chicken Solution, which I must qualify by saying that I have no dog in this fight and have never been to entertainment at the Squares. The Chicken gets his music fix in smoke-filled honky tonks and blues bars.
Grant a concession to someone to provide rental chairs.
They could number their chairs and produce a corresponding laminated credit card sized ticket to accompany each numbered chair. This serves as proof of "ownership".
Charge $2.50 per numbered chair plus a reasonable deposit on each card.
Numbered chairs are reserved while unnumbered ones belong to whoever owns the butt that it supports.
Yeah, yeah...there are logistical issues such as manpower and having to wait in line for your card deposit refund, but who cares? That would be the problem of whoever gets the chair rental concession and the chair renter.
