Other than that. Day of event only. I believe it would be ok to leave them as markers for the second day of a two day show as well

I got to Bloomington July 3rd at 2pm in the afternoon. Any good area to put a chair was taken already by chairs laying there from days before. I'll not complain to much about that as I got a bleacher seat two from the top in front of the concessions. The bleachers leave a lot to be desired though.

You will find no chairs or other markings from DAYS BEFORE at Bloomington. They always open the gates at 5PM the day prior to the event for fans to go in and mark their seats or put their chairs in the desired location. Nothing is allowed before that time. This prevents someone from marking seats for the entire season and not always showing up, as is allowed at a track farther north.

I think fans who support a track on a regular basis should get first chance at their regular seats for the special events also. After all, over a seasons time, we spend many more dollars at our home track than the special event only fans.JMO
