Moda Center (Rose Garden) Seating Chart: Aisle Seats

I am a little claustrophobic so I like to sit on the aisle when at a seated event.  I couldn't find any information online as to which seats at the Portland Oregon Rose Garden arena where aisle seats so I had to go down to the ticket office to ask.  The seating charts I found online where no help. Even the 3d seat viewer on the Rose Garden site only gave a view by row.

The ticket seller at the Rose Garden box office told me the aisle seats (at least in the 100 section) are:
Seat #1
and
Seat #16.

You can't always specify seats when using their online ticket purchasing system, so you have to hope the computer gives you an aisle selection. If not, I guess you have to drive down to the ticket office and purchase it in person.  The people there were very helpful and gave advice as to what would be a good seat for each show I purchased a ticket for.  They also told me if I lost the physical ticket, they could look it up by my credit card number which was a relief since I paid some serious cash for all those tickets.

The Rose Garden ticket office was open during a time when there was no event. Also there was free 15 minute parking up between the buildings right next to the office, so it was not as big a hassle as I had anticipated to buy them in person. Ticketmaster didn't sell the Rose Garden tickets anymore; they had gotten me aisle seats when buying them in person at Freddies in the past.
