INDIANAPOLIS — Everybody who attends a Utah Jazz game in coming seasons will get a seat upgrade.

As part of their $125 million arena renovation, the Jazz are installing new seats throughout Vivint Arena.

Fans of the plastic green seats that have been a feature of the arena since it opened as the Delta Center in 1991 might be a bit disappointed. The new seats will be navy blue. They will also be much more comfortable — fully upholstered, plush back and contour foam seats. The team hasn’t announced the new seating arrangement, but the preliminary plans called for fewer than the current capacity of 19,911.
