First hockey game last night:
-Loved how busy downtown was, felt very big city.
-Getting in and up to the seats was a breeze.
-Beer acquisition was quick and plentiful.
-Food was another story. Up on the 200 concourse it was hard to find something other than pizza 73, you had to go down to the main for really good options.
-Seats were quite a bit higher up even though we moved 5 rows down, but the view was amazing and that screen, unreal.
-Loved the variety of seating options and how open the arena felt.
-Getting out was a breeze down the SW stairwell.
-Truly amazing how different downtown feels on a Thursday night at 10pm when you have thousands of people milling about!
