who said the judges sit 15 rows back
At the Arnold, they sit in the first row.At the Olympia, they sit 15 rows back.
15??!! Why?
Thanks for clarifying.However it seems strange that there isn't a standard way of judging.
Is this like a where's Waldo for spot the female in the audience?
Makes sense (sarcasm)No doubt there's greed mixed in there and they'd rather sell those tickets to fans than give the judges a better view.
