[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1653827, member: 498"] Actual heated seats? No. Both of the close sale yards have heating. But as we know hot air rises. The top row seating is almost too warm. The trouble sitting there is the poor view of the cows. Also the auctioneer can't see you as well. At Vale the seats are hard plastic which wear on my poor old previously broken tail bone. I see one buyer who brings in a piece of foam rubber to sit on. I need to get one of those. At La Grande the front couple rows get a blast of cold air every time they let some cows out of the ring. The seats are old movie theater seats. Lots of padding but set too close together. I have to sit in the front row. The second row and on back my knees are killing me in a hour or two. But this time of the year for warmth I wear a shirt, heavy hooded sweat shirt, and a heavy weight carhartt coat. The guy sitting beside me yesterday was wearing gloves. People who live in warmer climates would probably be freezing but when It is 15-22 degrees every morning when you do chores you sort of get use to it and learn how to dress warm. [/QUOTE]
