Center leaders say for $20 you can choose and buy a seat that maybe means something to you or just a random one to put in a man cave.

"A lot of people have sentimental and emotional attachments to some of the seat. Maybe it's where they proposed to somebody or it was their first concert or somebody shared a Harlem Globetrotters game with their grandkids or something," explained Robyn Schon, Berglund Center General Manager.

The money collected from seat sales will go toward the renovation fund.

Construction begins in August.
