But , they were looking for sliced cheese and another commentor mentioned there is a grocery store about 100 feet away . CVS stores around here are about 8 , 000 10 , 000 square feet . So each wall would be roughly 30 yards . They usually have about 8 aisles . <| sep |> Back in 1997 that wasn ' t the case though ! I ' ve been a super fan for 30 years , in 97 ' the only way to get the best seats for an event was to attend the previous event held in that city and buy them when they would do a presale of sorts during intermission . In June 1997 they did a house show in Montreal that I bought tickets for , instead of watching any of said show at all I hopped in line right away at the box office ahead of everybody to wait for intermission and the tickets to go on sale . Believe it or not I wasn ' t even the first in line ! Probably had a dozen dudes in front of me with the same idea , came through with front row so everything worked out in the end !
