I believe I sat in that section during one of the official practices, and as far as I could tell the judges' platform wasn't blocking the view in any way. The seats directly behind them may have been unavailable for seating. Didn't try sitting near the kiss and cry area.For those who were at Skate America in 2019 -- does the Officials Platform block the view of the seats behind them? Trying to decide which section to buy my ticket for. I'm leaning towards the judges side, but the end zone behind K&C are cheaper and also I won't have to turn my head to watch
