## Abstract

A seat cushion cover in combination with a sport seat cushion includes a rectangular pocket defined by fabric upper and lower panels created by one piece of fabric folded upon itself. The upper and lower panels are generally parallel to one another and are joined by side panels. A fabric flap extends from the upper panel which is adapted to retain the cushion within the pocket and provide for securing the cushion on a stadium seat. The flap foldably extends over an opening of the pocket and along a portion of lower panel. The flap and the portion of the lower panel are separated by a space for receiving the stadium seat bottom. Fastening mechanisms extend from the cushion securing to the stadium seat bottom and the seat backrest in order to secure the seat in its lowered position.
