As others have stated, it is because there is less moisture in the air the higher you go in the atmosphere, so it is common to get a nosebleed.

So, to get the point across that you are REALLY far away from the center of the action, you say you’re in the nosebleed section.

They are called nosebleed seats because air is drier at higher altitudes, and this can cause some people to have a nosebleed.

The idea is that when you are subjected to high elevations you get nosebleeds. Hench the high high seats are the nosebleed sections

the biggest concern I had with ‘nosebleeds’ is that with them being above the lights rig, whilst they use ‘temper lights’ to make the gang glow, my seat grew to become into suitable consistent with between the lights furniture, and as such i grew to become into distinctly lots staring right now into the mild the completed time there the place suits taking place

It’s an allusion to and obvious exaggeration of the fact that the seats are so high that the elevation causes one’s nose to bleed due to the rarefied air.

Means you got some bad seats! You’ll be so far away from the action and straining your eyes, ears, and brain your nose will start to bleed. lol
