You go 'Cats! Ok, I don't mean that. Not really, but I wish I did! I am definitely an MLB fan, but my beloved Checkers also play here and I got to see my first Bobcats game on Monday (thanks Nicole!) and I've got to say - I'm still impressed with the arena. Not only is that expensive ass screen still working great and impressing me, but the facility is clean, well organized and staffed with some happy people! Nothing makes an experience better when you get the feeling the staff is happy - and that goes for every business or place you visit!
Since we were VIP's, we got to go almost courtside and wow - those seats rock! Up in the lounge I was shocked to find no tap beer on hand (OMB, plz!) but the seats were great and not a bad view was to be had. I am not sure how much they rent/lease these out for but I hope not too much if they're not staffed throughout the game (which is what I was expecting). The bar/grill that was located below us looked amazing - def wouldn't mind watching some hoops from there!
I really enjoyed the after game entertainment too - an urban beat band inside the arena near the 5th street exit. Very nice end to another nice night in my city!
