In my opinion, standing during your match is like standing for the last strike of a ball game (sometimes the same duration) or standing on a key play. the problem is that you are one of only 6 teams that are truly interested in giving a boost of excitement for that period of time. We usually sit in the back at most of our events. We are now even having our scouts sit in a different place from the team. We tried this in Atlanta and it worked.
Another thing I have our scouts do if there is a team standing in front of us, is to just move for the duration of the match and sit in the stairs. We understand why teams stand up so we make the effort to let them do what they do year after year.

Btw Paul, did Dustin from 816 make you do pushups after a match? lol
