I want to watch SuperBowl in my in progress HT, but have no seats!

I've come a long ways since my initial design and have my projector and audio installed. I'm going to build a temporary screen with blackout cloth, etc. Now, I'm dying to try out the new screen for the SuperBowl, but have no seating! I watched my first movie projected on the painted beige wall while resting comfortably on a bean bag!
I'm planning on getting Berkline or something similiar in the future. I don't think any of my local furniture stores carry Berkline for a decent price. My urge to watch the Superbowl is tempting me to make an impulse buy. UGH!!!

Just go out and get some canvas folding chairs - the ones I used worked out fine and were pretty comfortable.

Or ask guests to bring lawn chairs?

Have a "tailgate" theme?

In 1975 I once needed a bunch of chairs for a reception. One of the local funeral homes had a policy of lending chairs to the local community for free.

I never thought about whether the room would be too dead.

Move the couch(es) and dining room chairs for one day.

Don't let the lack of chairs ruin the chance for a good night or party.

Get some plastic lawn chairs, or ask everyone to bring the new "chairs in bag" that have replaced lawn chairs.

If you got a big screen, some sound, and HDTV, your setup will still probably be better then 90% of the general public.

before my furniture (8 weeks) arrived, I used chairs like this. They are very comfortable and you can take about 2 hours before you need to move around. Now they are very comfortable outdoor chairs
A lot more comfortable than the "chairs in a bag" (which I own 3)
