front row
Closest to stage
The front row is the line of seats nearest a stage, playing field, or other focal point—typically the most desirable position for viewing.
A front-row seat suggests proximity and clear sightlines, and figuratively means being positioned to witness something firsthand: She had a front-row seat to the company's collapse.
In rugby, the front row refers to the three forwards who bind together at the front of a scrum.
