word - Teapot Riddle no.41 (fan made)


Teapot Riddle no.41 (fan made).
Welcome.




Rules:




I have one word which has several (2 or more) meanings.
Each of the meanings is a teapot (first, second ...).
You try to figure out the word with my Hints.




  • First Hint:

    My first teapot's sweet, and my second will fill.
    They each have a seat, but one might face downhill.





  • Second Hint:

    My first is surrounded by neighbours, or not.
    My second is crowded with all tickets bought.




  • Third Hint:

    My first might have you eat then sleep for the night.

    My second can, too, if the show won't excite.




  • Final Hint (to make it easy):

    My first, you must own, or of that you'll be less.
    My second, alone, won't see queues (or success).

    My third's on a tower that spread from a bean.
    My fourth will have power, up (red) or down (green).






Good luck and have fun!
Last teapot riddle. Big thanks to @Jannis for making them!



Answer



I think it is



Home. First as in your home, Second as in a home game (with regards to sports)



My first teapot's sweet, and my second will fill. They each have a seat, but one might face downhill.




Home sweet home. A home game will fill. They both have seats but a home game may be in a stadium with seats going down hills



My first is surrounded by neighbours, or not.



Your home is next to neighbours.



My second is crowded with all tickets bought.



Will get crowded, people buy tickets to a home game.




My first might have you eat then sleep for the night.



You eat and sleep in your own home



My second can, too, if the show won't excite.



If the game is a bit boring you might get sleepy?



My first, you must own, or of that you'll be less.




You either have a home or you are homeless.



My second, alone, won't see queues (or success).



If the home team is on their own, then people won't turn up and they won't beat anyone.



My third's on a tower that spread from a bean.



Jack and the Beanstalk reference. The giants have a home at the top of the stalk.




My fourth will have power, up (red) or down (green).



Fuse boxes in homes will have a green LED when the power is down (indicating that it is safe to do electrical work) and a red switch when up.
