What We Loved
- One of the most electric atmospheres despite the small size.
- Being so close to the court created a personal, immersive experience.
- Good Arena Accessibility (3.75/5): Above average, smooth entry and navigation.
- Affordable Concessions: $12 brisket sandwich, $10 kids meal (with drink!)—rare at a pro sporting event.
- Fun matchup, strong performance by Connecticut Sun, and a good DJ.
What We Didn't Like
- Getting there wasn't ideal, which could be a dealbreaker for some.
- Seat Comfort (3.25/5): Fine, but not standout—especially for a premium spot.
- Limited Food Options (3.0/5): Prices were decent, but the variety could be better.
- Nickel-and-Dime Moment: Charging $0.05 for ketchup felt unnecessary and off-putting.
The Verdict
A hidden gem of an arena with big-league energy in a small space. If you're after an up-close, high-energy WNBA experience, this place punches way above its weight class. It’s not perfect—getting there is a hassle and food is just okay—but once you're inside, the vibes and views make it all worth it.
⭐ Final Take: Would absolutely recommend, especially for fans wanting to feel in the game.
