They paid for a seat under a tarp at a table AND drinks AND appetizers. It wasn't just a seat. It was something people would have had to pay for, even if it wasn't available on the actual central square.

Anyone who wanted drinks could've gotten them cheaper at either of the town square bar huts. Anyone who wanted appetizers could've gotten their choice from any of the restaurants around the square, instead of only the limited options provided if they paid the $50 for the reserved seat.

$50 got 1 chair at a table plus 2 drinks plus appetizers, all under a flea market tarp.
