What does "lower box seats" mean? what does lower mean in the context? This would be a day both father and son could treasure all their lives-the boys's first day at Fenway park and the day they'd both looked forward to for so long They took a chance at the reserved-seat ticket window and were rewarded with a pair of lower box seats. The boy sat in the second row just a few feet away from the field. They did all the things they had planned: hotdogs, ice cream, sandwiches, reading the scoreboard, watching the crowd, chasing foul balls, and cheering. This is what life is all about thought A boy and his dad and baseball. Nothing beats it!

Lower means closer to the field. So lower box seats are box seats that are closer to the field than upper box seats. Box seats are usually reserved seats that consist of separate "chairs" for each ticket-holder. Box seat are sometimes called "loge seats," but this is rare for a sports stadium. The term loge is more common in opera houses. Box seats can be compared to unreserved seats, which usually consist of just a number on a long bench. In baseball, the unreserved seats are commonly called the bleachers and are behind the outfield fence. So, lower box seats are reserved, close to the field, relatively comfortable, and more expensive than upper box seats or unreserved seats.
