We were dispatched we couldn't go into our regular seats in the West balcony, but ok fine.
But they only opened 3 doors (each end and one down from the north end) into the west stands. Which also would have been fine, except the stands there have no side to side aisles at all. So if you wanted to get to seats anywhere besides the ends, you had to disrupt people through a full row... While there was also several inches of snow to maneuver through and all of us wearing a bunch of layers.
Eventually fans just rolled the doors up in the middle, I think.
Why in the world would they even do that? It makes zero sense to me. We're gonna funnel everyone into this area, but also make it difficult as hell to get into the area.
