nosebleed seats

Upper deck tickets

Nosebleed seats are the cheapest seats in a stadium or arena, located in the highest sections farthest from the action.

The term plays on the idea that the altitude is so high it might cause a nosebleed: We could only afford nosebleed seats, but at least we were in the building.

Also called nosebleeds or the nosebleed section.
