  1. Law of the Theater & Hockey Arena

At any event, the people whose seats are furthest from the aisle, always arrive last.

The folks in the aisle seats come early, never move once, have long gangly legs or big bellies and stay to the bitter end of the performance. The aisle people also are very surly folk.
