Hysterical! Been there, so been there. Hubs is 6'4". We look for the aisle seats or we don't go.

His knees would push the seat in front. I bet he’s like me, wanting to pepper spray the guy in front who reclines his airline seat.

Maybe, but he's not said that and is so patient about it. But, I've taken to buying the airline tickets because I will pay for the upgrade to bulk head. Bit of promo: Alaska Airlines has wider spacing. Thank goodness for that.

You could have tried to walk in with a pet duck on a leash (honoring Disco Duck - just had to share that visual). I'm sure the founding committee for the concert hall are rolling over with the thought of their hall honoring the lowest form of musical experiences! (full disclosure - by my HS junior year I was fully into going to discos, and had the silk shirts and platform shoes. By my college sophomore year I wore the same outfit as a spoof to Disco at a fraternity social. Sounds like you made the best of it.

I was living a good life until you mentioned Disco Duck. It’s worse than Car Wash. Silk shirts, platforms, polyester leisure suits, hard to believe we made it past all the obstacles of youth.

As illustrated in the review, you found the key to life in finding the humor and making the best of an occasion. Even the Phantom's vantage point didn't escape my notice. Having an eye for detail, and letting your imagination take off with it.
