box seat
Exclusive stadium enclosure
A box seat is a seat in a small, enclosed or semi-enclosed section of a theater, stadium, or arena, typically offering a premium view and some privacy from the general audience.
These sections, called boxes, are usually elevated and set apart from regular seating.
By extension, if you're in the box seat, especially in British and Australian usage, you're in an advantageous position to control or influence an outcome.
