| - I've been to a few concerts here, namely Coldplay's Viva La Vida tour in 2008 Gorillaz's Plastic Beach tour in 2011. However this week was my first sporting event here. My company reserved a box suite for he Raptors vs. Sacramento basketball game. While I merely went to network and have a good time, I am not a basketball fan. However the service here compelled me to write a review for the ACC.
As my first time in a box setting, I had much lower expectations than what I experienced. As soon as you enter your box, you are welcomed in by the staff and they offer to hang your coats. Every seat had napkins and a tall box of popcorn. After we all got settled in, the host didn't waste time in offering us drinks. I had both white and red wine, and both were decent.
The host later on came to tell us that dinner was served. She uncovered the hot plate, which had quite the assortment of meat: pork chops, steak, grilled chicken, and bacon, with some grilled broccoli, stuffed tomatoes, and potatoes. Other food choices included PizzaPizza, sushi, caesar salad and bread rolls.
While we watched the game, the host was careful to ensure that our glasses were always full. She was kind enough to inform us when the dessert cart was outside our box as it was its last round; typically, they push the cart around for anyone to grab desserts at all times. We had a large choice of all kinds of mousses, cheesecakes, dipped fruit, and candy bars. I picked a blueberry-chocolate mousse. It was delicious, but I was too full from all the food to even finish it!
Box seats are truly an experience!
