Abstract: A portable knockdown-type stool for use by a spectator of a sporting event features a seat and frame normally supported in elevated relation to the ground by a single, readily detachable leg or post and having a detachable, stabilizing handle or bar disposed in laterally offset relation to the seat and adjustable between relatively upwardly extended, or downwardly retracted position with respect to the seat. In its retracted position, the handle provides a convenient mean for carrying the stool from place to place and when extended it provides either a back rest or prop for a person seated on the stool.
