How many people actually fit at a 6-foot folding table?

A 6-foot (72" x 30") rectangular table seats 6 in the standard banquet arrangement — 2 per long side with about 12" per person (tight) plus 1 at each end. Using the more comfortable 18" per person rule, each long side fits 4, giving you 8 total without end seating. For planning purposes, 6 is the comfortable working number for most events.
