So far about 30 replies - not one in favor of saving seats. I also do not like this practice. However I do not go for the idea that an event person can selectively single out someone doing this. Something does not add up on the original story. Did the event person clear out all saved seats? Did the event person throw the cushions in the bushes (hard to believe)? I would hope that if this practice is a new standard that we would at least be informed of the new situation - like the "no coolers, etc speach before each set starts). FYI - If I go to the square and there are no seats and some are being saved with no one in attendance I sit in it until the party comes back and politely give it back - why should it go unused.
