A person who spends 20 years in the 24th row of a theater is “exiled”.
If the first row is aisle A, and the second aisle is B… the 24th row is aisle X. 20 years here would be 20 years living of X-aisle (exile), playing on the rhyming of the words X-aisle and exile.

The condition or period of being forced to live away from one's native country or home, especially as a punishment.
The condition or period of self-imposed absence from one's country or home.
One who lives away from one's native country, whether because of expulsion or voluntary absence.
