    Special Brackets For Old Cinergy Field (Riverfront Stadium) Seats?

    I bought two connected Cinergy Field seats today ($2 at a yard sale!!). They are the Red section seats. There is an arm in the middle of the two seats but none on each end. It has a connector in the rear middle where it was secured in the concrete to stablize them at the stadium.

    Does anyone know who may sell special brackets for these type seats?

    I did just email Orourke Wrecking to see if they sell them. I thought they did upon selling the seats to the public a few years back.

    Here is an email response I received from O'ROURKE WRECKING COMPANY.
    I will have to call next week.

    We are out of brackets. They were made by Evers Welding, (513) 385-7352



    Thanks for writing.

    I know this thread is old, but I found some pretty nice brackets for my Riverfront Stadium chair off of eBay. The guy who made and sold them lives in Grove City.

    These:

    look kind of similar to mine (mine are sort of these brackets flipped upside down like this: ^ if you can imagine that.

    They're 90 bucks a pair, but they probably could work.

    Here's a guy on ebay, too:

    In the item description it says he makes and sells stands (which look pretty nice) with an email link.

    Here is a picture. Hopefully I can find the correct brackets. Yes, for $2 it is worth the investment to try and fix this.

    Edit: I have emailed 4 different companies with 6 pictures. My fingers are crossed.

    It does not look good. I may just end up hanging them up in my garage for display.

    Here is one of the emails I received which was the most positive but not good news.

    " Hi, as you know already, you need to buy two more legs, we don't have Riverfront legs in any of our warehouses. We have American Seating legs of various types but you would need to scrap that one leg you have and start all over, and your pair of seats would not be considered legit collectibles at that point. $60 to $105 depending on style per leg plus UPS.
    We do have brackets for those Riverfront legs
    to make them floor mounted. "

    I sat in those seats once time. I think Dave Parker hit a home run that day.

    He could hit them in the Red Seats.

    Maybe you could create a black box museum-style pedestal to rest them on to display them and even sit on them.
