UFC fan gets seat upgrade from Dana White after Twitter complaint
Sometimes it pays to complain.
Twitter user @DavidWildWest shelled out $175 for a ticket to UFC 201 on Saturday night, only to discover a giant pole blocking his view when he arrived at Philips Arena in Atlanta.
Unimpressed with his seat, West complained to UFC president Dana White:
@danawhite $175 for Tix and I've got a big ass pole in the way :( help?? pic.twitter.com/K28IK3TBZ6

Fifteen minutes later, West received this response from White:
@DavidWildWest DM me your seat location
— Dana White (@danawhite) July 31, 2016
White ended up coming through for West, upgrading him to some "bad ass seats" with a much better view.
@BibleBoxing @danawhite status is Dana is a man of his word. Bad ass seats now
