I have been a seat filler for the past 2 years. For the most part, it seemed like they tend to pick people who have some connection to Tonys (i.e. connections to the producers, management, etc.) or people who have been seat filling for a long time. It's a great time. Last year I got to sit in the same seat the entire show but my first year I was up and down and all over the place and got to sit next to some pretty awesome people (and got to be on tv when someone right by me won).
