The Bottom Line
The Verdict
We arrived at the arena 90 minutes before tip-off and there were activities happening in almost every corner, which helped the time go by quickly. Since we were still full from the Grandma Bob's Pizza from earlier, we instead sampled several holiday beverages during the game and they were very tasty. The vibe in the arena was lively & made for a fun game despite the Pistons losing to Orlando.
What We Loved
- Good food options.
- Lots of entertainment happening around the arena from 90 minutes to tip-off.
- Seeing our favorite half-time show: Scooby!
- A coffee shop inside the arena which served, reasonably priced, holiday specials including Toasted Pecan & Pumpkin Latte.
- Staff & bartenders were friendly.
What We Didn't Like
- Good seats with cup holders, however they were immovable & attached to the seat back in front of you, which took away from seat pitch.
- Concession prices were on par with other arenas: astronomical!
- No coat rooms for winter jackets.
