Regularly occupied spaces for stadiums

We are in doubt about the classification of regularly occupied spaces for a stadium. It will have the administrative area that will obviously be regularly occupied, but what about the VIP lounges, press areas, restaurants and the seating areas for the public? Should they be considered regularly occupied, although they are not occupied for more than one hour every day?

Not knowing if this is enclosed or not would make it easier to answer. I would consider the restaurant, VIP lounges and press boxes as regular occupied. Here is the thing, eventhough a sporting event does not happen everyday, what about all the other events that occur. Secondly, a football game and most other events are more then an hour. So these spaces are occupied for a decent amount of time. Look at the intent of the credit.
