They didn't want us sitting because VIPs and important people would walk through or watch the matches from the stands and God-forbid they see us humans get tired and rest our weary feet so they literally told us that if you're not at the scoring table or defense coordinator table, you wouldn't get chairs. The lead queuer at Carson even had a chair near the curtain entrance that he'd use sometimes, and they kept taking that away when he got up.
Yes, I thought that was a stupid policy. Yes, I will be making sure my voice is heard about that one. I'm never a fan of making dumb decisions for pomp and circumstance, especially at the expense of other people's bodies. My feet and knees were killing me by Saturday morning.
