Luke 14:9

“And he who invited you and him shall come and say to you, ‘Give this man place,' and then you will begin with shame to take the lowest place.”

And the result would be that the host would say to them, ‘You are sitting in this man's place'. Then with shame they would have to leave their choice place and move lower, but as all those lower seats would by now already be full, (distinguished guests regularly arrive the latest, and those who saw themselves as less distinguished would arrive early, as this man had), they would, filled with shame, have to take the lowest place. Their dishonour will be obvious to all.
