I think the whole group should be in their seats, not just a couple hanging out to keep seats from being taken.
For Fat Tuesday our group arrived at about 3:00 P.M., plenty early I would think. All the seats were taken, many with rope tied to the chairs and nobody around.
We just helped ourselves to these roped off chairs.
If you want to be sure of a seat at these events you should have your butts there. Roping of seats or having one person saving seats for a group should not be tolerated.
