Hi guys.
First off; I’m sorry if this a bit of a dumb question.
Me and my wife, from Belgium, are visiting San Francisco in November. And one of the must-see/do things for me is attending one (or both) of the Warriors – OKC games during that timeframe. However, we’re a bit in doubt as to what seats to consider buying (currently looking via Ticketmaster resale tickets).
On one hand this will be pretty much a ‘once in a lifetime’ experience. I’ve only been to the States once before (also San Francisco) in 2012 and attended a game in Oracle, this was during a special college trip. I’m pretty into the Warriors – watched every game last season. So seeing them IRL and – barring injuries – seeing some Curry magic is kind of a thing for me. So it might be worth it to dish out those $ 250 – $ 350 ticket prices for one game to be seated at the lower level, somewhere mid-section.
On the other hand, it’s expensive. The entire trip (airplane tickets, hotel, …) without the NBA tickets will probably cost us somewhere between $ 3500 and $ 4500. And tickets on the higher level, first row are about $ 100 – $ 110 / person.
TLDR; is it worth paying the price difference for seats like [these](https://www.rateyourseats.com/shared/Chase-Center-Basketball-Section-219-Row-8_on_10-10-2019_FL.jpg) versus seats like [these](https://www.rateyourseats.com/shared/Chase-Center-Basketball-Section-113-Row-13_2_on_10-10-2019_FL.jpg)?
Thanks in advance for your advice.

Not a stupid question. It just feels nicer sitting in the lower level even if its a higher row. I’d take a higher row in the 1st level than 1st row in the 2nd deck if prices are similar . Whatever you choose you’ll have fun because you’re visiting from afar.
I found the view in the upper level at Chase to be an unpleasant experience. I had row 2 seats up there and still felt like I was stressing my neck to look down the whole time. Definitely get lower bowl seats if it can.
