Theres only 2 exceptions to the seat saving thing I feel.

#1: You want to save 3-4 seats for your drive team for awards. They don't need to be saved the entire competition, just after their last match is played. I can tell you theres nothing more annoying then going through a stressful Eliminations only to find theres no seats for you during awards, at least in my experience.

#2: Lunch Time. I completely understand teams that save their seats during lunch time. I wouldn't want to come back from lunch to find the entire stands filled and no where for the scouters to sit.
