Maybe at championships that's the case, but for regionals especially this year, where it was quite common to have 9-12 matches per team, it could be every 15minutes or less. And think about it, at regionals, if the majority of teams stood during their matches (with 6 at a time), there could be people sitting in places such that they'd end having to stand almost the entire day if they want to see the any match at all. i.e. In the first match, team A, B, C is standing, and they happen to be in front of me to the left, blocking my view. In the second match, team D, E, F is standing, and they happen to be in front of me also somewhere, and so on.... So when people say "it's only 3min you have to stand", that's assuming you're the only team that's blocking their view the entire day.......
Just something else to consider....
ps. When I looked around in GA, I would say the teams that stood during their entire match were in the minority. Many of them stood before/after. The place was just as hoppin'.
