They aren't the worst seats possible. I bought those seats.
I have sat in many Broadway theatres...even the second to last row of the balcony in the Ford Center (now Hilton Theatre) and saw perfectly. Broadway theatres aren't that huge. Everyone is under the assumption that those seats are nosebleed seats. They're not. This isn't a stadium...you get a great view for less than half the price.
